John,
I wouldnt go for Delphi 4 php - the vcl is a pointless exercise.
Debugging (when it works - it has a mind of its own) works really well -
all the delphi debugging facilities.
If you want to go for Delphi for PHP, I would wait for the next version.
Or, my son says that eclipse should do the trick, but I havent tried it.
