I just wanted to poll the community and see which plugins people are currently using to get all of these different technologies running in Eclipse.

I saw this thread which mentioned Spket & WPT: Eclipse: which plugins for HTML & Javascript? But I noticed that Spket doesn't seem to have been updated since October of 2009 so I'm wondering if it's still a good tool to use.

I'm not sure what would be best for PHP since it seems like some of the tools are disjointed at the moment.

For Actionscript I know I can just install the latest Flash Builder plugin and be done.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Personally I use PDT for PHP development on Eclipse. I recommend you to take a look at it.

Aptana is a good tool for HTML, CSS and JavaScript. You can install it as a plugin. Features: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript Code Assist, JavaScript Debugging, JavaScript Libraries and DOM Outline.

You can install Aptana Studio on a current Eclipse with PDT, and it works like a charm. I really liked Aptana's features for HTML, CSS and JavaScript. PDT + Aptana is probably the best all-in-one Eclipse experience for web-development with PHP.

ActionScript is based on the same ECMA standard as JavaScript, so I guess most of Aptana's JavaScript features will be available for ActionScript.

You can also try the new Eclipse IDE for JavaScript Web Developers.

after so much searching I've finally settled on just running Eclipse with Aptana and Flash Builder as plugins.
