I have always found that a critical part of programming and debugging
is to place "debug" statements strategically throughout my code. That
way I can know exactly what various values are at different points
and can quickly spot when something isn't as expected.
My style is:
if ($debug > N) {
echo <tag & variable>
...
}
where I use different values for N to be able to easily turn
debugging on and off by section or verboseness - based on the value
of $debug that I set.
This takes a lot of the guesswork out of debugging things.
