The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Best PHP debugging environment for WordPress?

Asked by gallymon in PHP Scripting Language, PHP for Windows, Plug Ins

Tags: , ,

I'm a C++ programmer and I'm used to robust debugging environments.   Thus far, my forays into coding PHP have been real hacks wherein I simply write a bit of code and try it and if it fails, I try to noodle out why.   It's not fast nor is it efficient.   It's also hard to write large complex collections of code that way.  
I'm wondering what kinds of development environments folks use who develop PHP plugins.   I want to be able to trace variables, set breakpoints, single step and such.   You know, all the big-boy ways of doing things.   I'm so new to PHP that I don't know what's out there.   I run my WordPress Blog hosted out in the world but I have servers here wherein I could set up a development environment.
So the question is what's the best most power development enviroment I can setup here so I can develop PHP code (for WordPress plugins for example) here at home on my server system?   Free is best, inexpensive is OK.   I'm not looking to buy a $600 package.
I host my Blog on www.bluehost.com.  My system here is a Windows Server 2003 system.Start Free Trial
