AH, that's what you get for not having followed the entire discussion. Yes,
if this is just a dump/debug output, then a toHTML() function would be
misleading. I'd say go with the assoc-array output, and have the programmer
write some code of himself around it :)
If you can't resist makgin the code print out HTML, call it something like
discoverHTML() and have its output be valid (X)HTML aswell :)
