Find my Xdebug download wizard
Installing Xdebug seems to be a problem for some users. The main trouble is for Windows users that don't know which file to download. Over the past few days I've worked on a wizard that analyses phpinfo()'s output and for Windows users suggests:
-
which file to download
-
where to put the file
-
which php.ini file to modify, and how
For Unix users, it explains:
-
which source tarball to download
-
how to compile
-
which php.ini file to modify, and how
I hope this makes it a bit easier to get going with Xdebug. Next up (hopefully this week) is release candidate 2 for Xdebug 2.1.0.

that's cool! it's always a trouble trying to install xdebug on colleague's machine. thanks!
Hey, cool. Not much help for me, but cool to know, that I am using the latest version.
You could make statistics... You could add an input field for an url for public accessible servers.

Just works ;)
I've tested with my mac osx and works pretty well! Good job ;)
Great tool. There is an issue using Zend Server and Xdebug however. It may be worth incorporating into your logic.
Nice feature!
The page could do with a privacy statement! And/or you should let users download the script to run locally.
@Derek: I don't have Zend Server. Could you provide (by mail) a phpinfo() output of it, and explain what exactly the problem is?
@Chris: I've added a privacy statement and a link to the source code.
Can you also add info on how to debug remotely using Netbeans or other editors ? Every guide seems only for local debug.
Life Line
I got myself a sheet of Sun-safe filter material, and McGuyvered a pop-up filter for my lens.
The first attempt sort of worked, but I didn't get the filter 100% straight. Luckily I have more material.
But this is sort of my first attempt, and a few sunspots are clearly visible on the right of the image.
Warning: Never look at the Sun without protection!
