A:
Eclipse (with the web tools project) should be able to handle this, although it may be more heavy weight than you need. As far as I know the browser included is based on Mozilla.

Eclipse is EPL, which is not GPL-compatible. Although it might be the questioner just wants any Free Software / Open Source license, rather than specifically GPL.

I was pleasantly surprised by Netbeans and after trying a bunch of others. Web browser and web server baked in just the way you like :)

I agree with everything you just said. However, Netbeans also feels some what heavy. I don't know if it's just me, but it does not feel as snappy as notepad. And, at the end of the day, ever text editor should be as fast as notepad or it's just not doing it's job well enough.

Aptana ... well, some people really like it, other people really dislike it.
It's certainly capable of doing what you want though, so only way to be sure which category you'll fit into is to give it a try.

A:
Aptana Studio is the best in my opinion, it's based on Eclipse and subsequently Java, so it will run on pretty much anything and has "Design" views supporting Firefox, Opera and Safari on OS X and Windows, I assume it does other browsers as well if they are installed.
It does CSS, XHTML, JavaScript + AJAX, PHP etc. It's very comprehensive and has some very useful predictive functions. It may be a little bulky if you like a minimalist development interface. In saying that though, I like a minimalist development interface and I love Aptana Studio!

Free Komodo edit is best for this http://www.activestate.com/komodo_edit/features/
It shows preview using Firefox engine.
