The Single MOST ANNOYING THING about vbulletin 3.
 

print_r, echo and similar statements are disabled

-- which is great for a production environment

BUT IT SUCKS BIGTIME WHILE DEBUGGING A NEW SCRIPT OR MOD!!

I need to build a function that, when called - stops the script immediately and prints out any variable or arrays you ask it to print. Any ideas?

Ever tried with a Doesn't that work either?

echo works fine here - I use it for debugging all the while ???

erm, they work for me ?

Well, I've tried them and I rarely get a response.

Just use exit; and it'll work fine.

I've used echo for almost everything I do and it seems to work fine...

You're using them in the php and not like a template... right?

I still can debug without echo, I print them in template it's still helpful
