Re: Re: regarding print_r()

My fave: echo '<textarea> . print_r($a,true) . '</textarea>'; - print_r's indents etc. maintained (as in <pre>) - default textarea is small and consistent size, doesn't disrupt layout even for massive arrays - you can resize at will (at least in Safari) - you can have multiples for complex problem solving and view them next to each other!
