Note Submitter: pekka at SPAMphotography-on-theSPAM dot net ---- For us newbies: During developement time you often want to display only some variables on page for debugging. With this function you can you can save some typing time. function printvars ($name,$hidden) { if ($hidden == "1") print "<!-- "; foreach ($name as $k) { global ${$k}; print "<br><b>$$k:</b> " . ${$k}; } if ($hidden == "1") print " -->"; return; } Use it by first creating an array of variable names (without $'s) you want to display: $track = array("name","address","car","hobby","favbeer"); and then run the function (use 1 as second parameter if you want to hide the output into html source code): printvars ($track,0);
