Thanks for your pointer, I have downloaded the trial version and started to play around with it. I love this! This actually tells you what mistake you made on the specific line without you having to actually run the code. If I am just debugging it, can I just get the standard version? Or, do you recommend other versions?

Thanks.

Ah, and XDebug is completely free. Always a plus.

DBG has a free version - www.php-debugger.com/dbg
Never tried the free version, but there's a support forum for it at
http://forum.nusphere.com
Maybe you can find out there if it works with Netbeans.

Cheers
Arno

Are you referring to PhpED? If so go for the standard version, the other
versions are aimed at teams, extended support or 3-year upgrade cycles.

Yes, I am referring to that. This is great information, plus the other versions are so much more expensive.

It can't work, maybe you fetched the 32b version.

I'm not using the x64 version of PHP, just the x64 version of XDebug. I
did that without thinking. Strangely enough, it works.
