Looking for a good WebDAV enabled windows editor [closed]

Within our company we use a proprietary template engine, which stores its templates in a MySQL database. We recently developed a WebDAV interface for this, which allows us to use standard tools to edit them, instead of a nasty <textarea>.

The standard operating-system webdav clients aren't great though, so for OS/X we went with Coda, which has amazing WebDAV support and saves us a ton of time.

Some of our devs are on Windows though, is anyone aware of a good editor that comes with built-in WebDAV support?

I ended up using Netdrive. Even though it has it's own share of problems (bad, bad multi-user support) the client behaves a lot smoother than Windows' and does a lot of built-in caching.

You can mount the WebDAV URI as a local drive and then access it using a standard editor, like notepad.exe or slightly fancier ones such as Notepad++.

The oXygen XML editor can use WebDAV. It might be worth checking if one can edit non XML files with it as well.

You can use a good FTP client (such as CrossFTP that handles SFTP, WebDav, and Amazon S3 protocols) to edit your remote files with your favorite editor.

There are Bluefish, gedit, Kate etc. They are primarily built for Linux but Windows ports are available in the links I have posted. They are all full blown editors too as you would hardly miss a feature. For questions like this the best source to have a primary lookup is wikipedia.
