Hi,

I have setup XDebug in xampp and in Eclipse Indigo. When I am trying to run the PHP web page from eclipse it isn't showing any output ! it isn't opening a new tab in Firefox 8. I have configured Eclipse indigo to use external browser from Window → Preferences → General → Web Browser.

At another location where there isn't any proxy this configuration works perfectly fine. At my current location I face this problem where I am sitting behind a proxy so I configured XDebug to use the proxy which my web browser is using.
My phpinfo() shows that its using correct Xdebug configuration as mentioned in my php.ini.

Another point is does the ADT plug-in have anything to do with the functioning of the PDT plug-in because at the location where it works perfectly i haven't ADT installed. This might be far-fetched but just wanted to clarify. I am using PDT 3.0.

My PHP.ini file for XDebug looks like this:
[XDebug]
zend_extension = "E:\others\xampp-win32-1.7.7-VC9\xampp\php\ext\php_xdebug.dll"
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_host="localhost"
xdebug.remote_port=9000
xdebug.remote_handler="dbgp"
xdebug.remote_mode="req"
xdebug.idekey = "ECLIPSE_DBGP"

Attached are my Eclipse configuration screenshots for XDebug:

It would be very kind if someone helped me out. Smile
