Upon a first glimpse on the source, may I suggest two points: As I see, currently only a html table is returned - data access from php itself is not possible (short of connecting the database itself). Wouldn't it integrate better if APM returned the data in some standard form, whereas the php file does the rendering? That way, a) I could individually interpret the data in PHP and b) independency from storage is still possible. Second, I see, you include the backtrace in the logged data. But the error condition may lie somewhere else in the environment (esp. Request information for webservers, Session information). It would be nice to be able to (optionally?) log those. Of course, such data cannot be "simply" printed in a table - but a more complex php gui could cater to that as well. Regards Hans-Peter
