    I have not seen an IDE that will debug PHP like other languages yet. There are however lots of IDEs avalilble, if you search this forum you fill find lots of them plus the comments from people who have tried and used them.

    Would be nice, I've often wished for one myself

    I usually end up just tracing through it mentally or sticking echo()'s in the code at various key points to see what is going wrong.

    print, print_r and die, if only there was break points.

    Suppose it could be possible to make a IDE that support PHP breakpoints and such, BUT it would require modifying the source to PHP itself.

    Re: VB style debug

    Because of the way the engines are written. PHP is more of an inline, interpreted scripting langauge, as opposed to ASP.NET, VB.NET, VB6 and C#, which are compiled languages.

    Zend also does line by line ddebugging, I have never tried it though as it is very expensive.
