Re: thanx a lot

The debugger has no longer been maintained since before PHP 4.1 which had substantial changes. Installing it requires building PHP which is probably the most complex set of switches I've seen. So you can pretty much only use it on a local build of an outdated PHP. We hope shortly to look into this and address these issues. We'd like to offer solutions that are more up to date as well as possibly some that are less invasive.

One thing that is helpful right now is the ability to use the RMB on the strucutre tree and set up to parse as PHP and see all the variables and functions on a page. At least we are reducing the cause of difficulties in PHP by a better grasp of your page. ;-)

Sorry Eric,

this doesn't work for me neither in the 3.0 nor in the current CVS version (just checked out to be sure). I compiled it myself under kde3.1b2 using qt3.05.

Also interesting is that PHP is not offered as a DTD-Choice by changing the DTD via project-options or the tools-menu, it is offered only as an option for new files in the quanta- and project options but has no effect on the structure view.

clicking with the right mouse button anywhere in the structure view doe not do anything. No emty popupmenu or such.

What to do?

Well you can see it as the first screenshot on the site. I've included a snapshot here. I can offer two possible reasons. For one I had trouble building KDE beta 2 with QT 3.0.5 and I guess I'll just build CVS. We have to look into it because our current CVS has been reported to have issues with it. As a last resort, quantarc has been known to cause oddities in the past. It has been far less lately but you might try renaming it. It's in $KDEHOME/share/config.

As far as selecting PHP as a primary DTD that's a bad idea so we eliminated it. PHP is in fact a psuedo-DTD in Quanta because it is not really a DTD. It is a preprocessor. Making it a primary DTD doesn't make sense and it makes the use of HTML in the document a problem. Only if you had no HTML at all in a file would it make sense, however the editor functionality as it is remains identical for PHP this way so nothing is lost. I hope this makes sense. The only thing affected here would be the structure tree.
