PHP IDE :: NuSphere Forums :: View topic - opening window with javascript disables debugging

Posted: Sun Jun 13, 2004 5:11 am

Hi,
I'm trying to debug the following:
In my first window I open another window using javascript:

<html><head>
<title>Start</title>
<script language="javascript">
MyWindow=window.open("next.php?param1=111", "Start");
</script>
</title>
</head></html>

The program "next.php" just shows the value of the param:
<html><body>
<? echo "param1="$param1""?>
</body></html>

I can set a breakpoint on the php-statement in "next.php", but the debugger won't stop there.
Its no solution to use a form and submit etc. because I have 3 large projects which I cant restructure.

Any idea
Greetings
Dieter

did you run first page in debugger ? If yes, next.php will be opened in debugger automatically. If no, you'd read http://forum.nusphere.com/howto-run-debug-session-t585.html

Yes I run the first script in the debugger.
A script like

start1.php:
<html><head>
<form action="next1.php">
<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" value="Start">
</form>
</head></html>

next1.php:
<html><body>
<?$value=1;?>
</body></html>

works, I can set a breakpoint at line 2 of next1.php, the debugger stops there. I will try the other things now...

with the 1st case debug session didn't start because script next.php was requested from a _new_ window and because dbg cookie is temporary, it didn't reach that window. In this case you have to add an explicit DBGSESSID request...

The DBGSESSID works, everything is ok now. Thanks for your help
