Very new to this and really appreciate the contributions of everyone. I really rely on this site . BigueNique inspired me with the last post. I am writing an application that is WAY above my head and am buried in pages of variables and objects. I really wanted an easier way to read them. I had two problems - 1. The lists were too long; 2. It was hard to tell where one ended and the other began; 3. By the time I saw my rendered forms, I forgot where my variable listing was. (Yeah, I can't count, get over it - now you know why this is so hard for me) I had a variable dumping routine that worked better than the print_r, but elegant_dump was MUCH nicer. I added a little bit of CSS and javascript to mine, and I have a really quick and easy way to display a colored title with a toggle control to expand or contract the variable structure and contents. It might be too rudimentary for most of you guys, and I'm not answering anyone's question specifically, but perhaps this creative implementation will make someone's life a little easier. At a minimum, It might be a good example of mixing in the different languages which was initially a big challenge for me. simply call: dump_e($var,[$TracerMessage],[$ColorBackground],[$ColorContentBox]); I have explained my functions as well as posted the required code to make it work here: http://tech.brandtitc.com/dump_e.php It is a little too long to post in this venue.
