This is a very good suggestion, although your example might be confusing to some people due to all of the quote escaping. Basically, Larry is suggesting that you make your code appear in the browser with each of the function parameters evaluated: myfunc(foo, 1 + 2); Your code may have: myfunc($var1, $var2 + $var3); So you might try this for debugging: echo "myfunc($var1, $var2 + $var3);"; If this looks right, you can take it a step further to reveal the arithmetic: echo "myfunc($var1, " . $var2 + $var3 . ');'; Hope that helps.
