How to use xdebug with eclipse IDE for PHP

Hi my PHP project is set up开发者_JS百科 on a remote test machine. I need to debug it using eclipse IDE. How shall I progress. I came to know i should prefer Xdebug rather than zend debugger.

Here are some tutorials you can use.

• http://xdebug.org/docs/remote

NOTE: From PHP 5.3 onwards, you always need to use the "zend_extension" PHP.ini setting name, and NOT "zend_extension_ts", nor "zend_extension_debug". This took me a few hours to get working because I was following some outdated links.

This worked very well for me: http://www.xdebug.org/wizard.php
