If you are speaking of dynamic web design (you mentioned PHP) try

looking into Seaside:

http://seaside.st/

It's power is smalltalk - either visual works or squeak

(http://squeak.org/About/)
If you are looking into programming languages, look into squeak. See the

link above for more than my brief intro here, but also the homepage for

info: http://squeak.org/
The complete system is open and at your disposal for modifying,

inspecting, learning, debugging, creating, etc.

Squeak runs on many platforms and the image is bit-identical for all

platforms (although there may be some a plugin that only runs on only

one or a few platforms - but I don't know of any off hand.)
Developers see: http://squeak.org/Features/Development/
I'd be happy to answer any questions about squeak.
