Xdebug with Firebug?

Post by DaveTheAve »

Alright I googled this and I could have SWORN I read this before...

Isn't there a way to debug php with Xdebug via the Firebug console in firefox? I really really thought I read about it somewhere.

I could totally use this.

Yep, it's a firebug extension called FirePHP. Very useful

Thanks man, I was actually already looking at that - thought that was it - but I can't figure out how to get it to work WITH xdebug.

Can you help me with that?

Not sure what you are trying to do with xdebug exactly, but firephp lets you log directly into the firebug console regardless of the type of output. Here is a nice tutorial on using firephp - http://yensdesign.com/2008/10/how-to-debug-php-code/
