I've found this online file explorer called enCode eXplorer. It was just what I was looking for; a simple, clean, free, easy-to-edit system, completely made up of one php file. The only problem I have with it is that it can only open relative subdirectories, which is not what I'm after.
Would anyone be able to suggest another product similar to this, but which can also display directories outside it's own directory/ subdirectories (so, for example, display a directory on another drive)?
I am not as interested in very detailed web file explorers like eXtplorer (extplorer.sourceforge.net) or AjaXplorer (sourceforge.net/projects/ajaxplorer). I'm more looking for a more simpler, editable explorer.
phpFileManager is a file manager based on a single PHP file with the capability to browse/manage outside of document root. It also allows browsing other drives as well. I have used it only on my Win7 desktop under Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.2.11. I have yet to run it on Linux.
It doesn't seem too difficult to edit or customize. The only difficulty I had initially was that I had to update the opening PHP tag in source from '<?' to '<?php'. The other gotcha I experienced was changing the configuration file using the built-in configuration HTML form. It seems to open itself up and modify a serialized PHP object in the opening comment at the source file.
I've found a decent alternative : Indexer! :D
Update (Dec 2013):
I have noticed the above link is now dead, so here is the file contents of indexer.zip hosted on Pastebin:

If you're interested you can view the (now dead) page using the Wayback Machine:

I have an open source web application that has many files, which is why I want to debug it in real time:
While I am surfing the web application, I want it to show me the physical path on localhost for the URL requested as well as all the files that are used to render this specific page.
Is there any tool for this?
You can use the Xdebug function traces feature.
Since you already use Xdebug, you just have to add some configuration in your php.ini:
xdebug.auto_trace=On # Start tracing before the script is run
xdebug.collect_params=4 # Show full variable contents and variable name
The trace file will, by default, be written to /tmp. On Windows you better set that yourself with xdebug.trace_output_dir=C:\somedir
PHP has also something built-in, but its not as nice.
You can use xDebug with PHPStorm and Google Chrome plugin as described on JetBrains wiki page
I would suggest phptrace.
phptrace is a low-overhead tracing tool for PHP.
It can trace all PHP executing, function calls, request information during run-time. And provides features like Filter, Statistics, Current Status and so on.
It is very useful to locate blocking, heavy-load problems and debug in all environments, especially in production environments.
Features:
low-overhead, when extension loaded and trace is off
stable,
running on Qihoo 360 and tested on main-stream frameworks

I've been using PHP-5.4.3 for about a month now, and today, I decided to make a switch to PHP-5.5.5, I downloaded the source code, and placed it in C:/php (also renaming the folder php-5.5.5 to php) and I added server variables, as usual C:/php/ <-- but here I got stuck. Because, usually I appended the php.exe at the end, which was found inside the PHP folder so, I could be able to access PHP from the command line, or start the built-in server, but now,I can't find this file, and I can't find a way to start the server from the command line either.
You can compile php yourself. It's simply 2-4 commands and its also explained. I can run configure then make install. You can run configure --help to see all the options. It can be useful if you compile for fast-cgi or need more space or a faster php.
The source code you downloaded needs to be built...
You can download a binary version from here (assuming you're using Windows, of course).
Or read this if you want to build it yourself. There are many other tutorials online.

I have tried few on my android phone and they only highlight HTML/Javascript even though they offer shortcuts for php tags they don't have PHP highlighting. someone knows of one that highlights php?
P.S. dont get me wrong i am not going to program on phone, just in case i need to fix error or two on the go...
You can check out my app - Android Web Developer. It contains a lot features, e.g.:
Support all major web languages and formats: PHP, JavaScript, CSS, HTML
A lot of ways to reach your project ( FTP, FTPS, SFTP, WEBDav and growing)
Code highlighting
Code completion
Error checking
Hardware keyboard support (e.g hotkeys)
Code beautifying with one click
Tablet ready UI
Line numbering
Quick preview of your page
Highlighting the current line
Search and replace with regular expressions
Unlimited Undo/redo
Full screen mode
Recent projects
Periodical autosaving
Rename/create/delete/copy-paste files inside you project
I think it's most convenient for web developers than any that now exist in google play

Use a SSH Client if you're going to fix an error or two. You don't need some IDE with tag support for your mobile device if you're not coding, would take up to many resources IMHO
connectbot
http://code.google.com/p/connectbot/

Learn VI
http://www.eng.hawaii.edu/Tutor/vi.html (I'm sure there are a ton of tutorials)
UPDATE (From your comment):
Use SSH to login to the server you wish to edit the PHP file on, I would suggest sftp. From there you can navigate to the file using commands like cd /var/www/public_html/ and edit files like this vi file.php.

Currently I am using cPanel's file manager to access my files, NotePad++ to edit them with syntax highlighting, and uploading them back to the server again using cPanel. Am I doing it wrong (I believe I am)? Is there a better way of doing this.
I can access my server using FTP.
I tried nearly every IDE out there and the two I liked best were Aptana Studio http://www.aptana.com and Netbeans http://www.netbeans.org
I ended up sticking with Aptana because I liked the dark backgrounds and I had a slight issue with Netbean's code completion.
Both IDEs are free and will allow you to connect through FTP.
Emacs has a mode called Tramp which allows you to edit files remotely. It will take care of transferring them to and fro using some protocol. It has ftp support.
Well on Windows I was using FAR+Colorer+WinSCP (or FTP) plugin for ages exactly for the online editing.
It is not an IDE but just a file explorer(a powerful one)/text editor though.
You could use Eclipse using the Remote System Explorer for that.
You simply have to create a new project and where Eclipse asks for the project location choose RSE, add your FTP/SMB/SSH/... connection and you're good to go.
There's also a PHP plugin for Eclipse.
If you want to stick to Notepad++, there's also a FTP plugin you might want to use.

I need a source code spell-checker. Of course there is a closed source ones but I'm looking for an open source solution, That can spell check html files, php source codes any further types would be better.
I also thought about making my own since there is a good libraries for spell checking, So what features you think it's good to be added to this application?
I have a very basic imagination of it:
Just Highlight the error words and give you suggestions without any actual modifying for the source code.
Support local and remote files
Spell check only certain parts of code like string literals (between quotations)
choosing between dictionaries.
Using the apell lib or any equivalent one.
Edit: It should have a GUI and should be cross-platform.
Emacs has a minor mode called flyspell which can spellcheck comments and strings within major programming modes.
It seems to fulfil all your criteria: it highlights misspelled words, gives you suggestions, local and remote files (eg. over ssh) are supported, knows how to just check comments and strings, and supports multiple ISpell dictionaries.
You could even automate spell checking using elisp to run batch checking.
Eclipse PDT, which is one of the best IDE for PHP (and is free) supports spellchecking -- as its based on Eclipse.
You can enable it in the preferences, and set a couple of options.
Unfortunatly, I don't think it parses source-code, and it'll highlight as "errors" parts of code that are actually not errors :-( So that's at least one thing that will not work for you, I suppose.
On the other hand :
hightlight without modifications : OK
local and remote files : should be OK, as Eclipse (with RSE plugin, for instance) supports remote files
only certain portions of code : NOT OK
choosing between dictionnaries : seems OK from the configuration dialog
apell or equivalent : I have no idea
GUI : OK : Eclipse
Cross-platform : OK as based on Eclipse
Here is a screenshot of the configuration dialog :
And a result of source-code spellchecking :
(source: pascal-martin.fr)
In red, an actual error, in a comment ; in green a not-error, in PHP code.
Most of the IDEs support spell-checking. I know Eclipse does. You can always run it through ispell
