note 69813 added to function.var-dump

Thanks to edwardzyang for function var_dump_ret above. For those of us who need to see it in web server log files -- i.e., using error_log("string") -- instead of on the page, this version is more readable: function var_dump_ret_for_error_log($mixed = null) { ob_start(); //capture output var_dump($mixed); //dump array/hash/etc. $content = ob_get_contents(); //finish capture ob_end_clean(); //wtf? Idk. $content = strtr($content, "\n", " "); //eliminate newlines return ereg_replace(" +", " ", $content); //compress multiple spaces } ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 66.159.220.115 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.var-dump.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/69813 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69813/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69813/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69813/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69813/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69813/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69813/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69813 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/69813 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
