   • Eclipse 3.8 is available at Eclipse Project 3.x Stream Downloads.
   • Do not download/install from other than eclipse.org.
2. Extract it.
   • (windows) Never install under "Program Files" nor "Program Files (x86)"
3. Start eclipse and create new workspace.

Install PDT 3.1.1 Nightly

PDT 3.1 was not released in spite of PHP Development Tools 3.1 Release Review.
Since PDT in Juno repository is same as old one in Indigo repository, you need to install PDT from nightly update site. It is not a formal update site, so following description will become outdated anytime in future. Be carefully.

2. Input http://download.eclipse.org/tools/pdt/updates/3.1.1/nightly in 'Work with' combo-box and click 'Add'.
3. Click 'OK' on 'Add Repository' dialog.
4. Wait until contents will appear.
5. Expand 'PHP Development Tools'.
6. Check 'PHP Development Tools (PDT) Runtime Feature' on and click 'Next'.
   
7. Proceed according to screens.

Install Eclipse Web Developer Tools

Don't forget this process. This is a workaround for the bug of PDT.

1. Open Help->Install New Software.
2. Select 'Juno - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno' in 'Work with' combo-box.
3. Wait until contents will appear.
4. Expand 'Web, XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development'.
5. Check 'Eclipse Web Developer Tools' on and click 'Next'.
