If it doesn't support debugging are there any extensions or plugins out there?

what's wrong with var_dump() and die() ? – Colver 15/8, 2011 at 9:39

@Colver those are really a basic/poor solution, compared to what you can do with a debugger... – Counterpane 15/8, 2011 at 9:48

Dreamweaver, even if it supports syntax-highlighting of PHP source, isn't quite known as a PHP-development environment ; so I'm not sure it supports debugging of PHP code.

Instead, I would recommend you use another more PHP-Oriented IDE, like :

Eclipse PDT (free -- not sure if it's maintained as much as it was a couple of month ago)
netbeans (free)
PHPStorm (not free)

Those three all support debugging with the Xdebug extension.

No, Dreamweaver does not support php debugging, i use PhpED for this purpose. – Embarrass 15/8, 2011 at 9:39

You can use FirePHP with Firebug on any IDE including Dreamweaver. http://www.firephp.org/
