The PHP IDE I linked in this thread comes with a built-in PHP interpreter (the same one included with WAMP) and it allows for fairly robust debugging. Best of all, it is free :D

yes very nice. I need a good javascript debugger :)... At least php tells you the line number and what might be the problem. Javascript it just locks up the page. Such a pain.

Firebug is what you need then. It lets you debug on the client side (aka in your own browser) so that it represents the actual running environment well. I think Aptana Studio also has a good built-in JS debugger.

I personally dont like firebug. I may just need to get more familiar with it though.

The only debugger I am aware of besides Firebug is the one in Aptana.

Same here. I have been doing a good job of figuring out my errors thus far. I only code a little before testing so I know the general area of the problem. I guess I will give firebug another try.
