What do I have to do to get 'PHP File' listed in the File -> New menu (main
menu, or context menu)?

Please forgive me if this question's been answered already.

I'm using latest/greatest 3.2 w/0.7.0 PDT.

Thanks.

Interessting Question ...
for me it's simpley there ... no matter if
- i use > File
- or use rightclick on folder > New
- or am in a Project that's not PHP

Perhaps it may be a difference that i allways open Eclipse with
PHP-Projects or that i use latest Nightly.

Yah. I've got an install at home, which is slightly newer than my office

something up. Is there a dotfile somewhere in my workspace that would have
this context-menu entry in it?

Out of curiosity, is the project you are adding to a PHP Project? (should have the P in the upper left corner of the project folder icon)

I have also recognized this missing php file option and - yes the
project is php.

I am using the new version:
pdt-all-in-one-S20070401_RC3-win32

I can access PHP file through
File -> New -> OTHER -> PHP
so it was not a big deal for me.

Try this:
Right click on Eclipse's toolbar and choose "Customize this perspective"
option. You will see a dialog box, and on "Shortcuts" tab choose "New"
from "Submenus:" droplist.

Find "PHP" in the left pane and check the checkbox next to it.
It will enable both "PHP File" and "PHP Project" in "New" menu of your
perspective. You can do the same to other file editors as well. (HTML,
CSS,....).

Best regards,
Piotr Szczepanik

Affirmative. It is a PHP project.

Are you in the PHP perspective? Top right, click the "Open perspective"
button and select php.

Everything still works if you're not, but the php options won't show up
first.
