Eclipse/Zend Studio is so full of options that you can miss a lot of them. Another downside of the little arrow thing is that it doesn't recognize arrays, which is obvious because arrays can only be read on runtime, well, same thing as objects. > >> If you want to display it in runtime, you can: print_r($GLOBALS); > > Whoa nelly!

You can also install xDebug and use the included debugger in ZS, but sometimes using a simple print_r is faster.
