PHP Servers Preferences

The PHP Servers Preferences page will display a list of your currently configured servers and allow you to add servers or edit settings for existing servers. The server settings will be used for debugging/profiling files on a remote server.

The PHP Servers Preferences page is accessed from Window | Preferences | PHP | PHP Servers.

PDT comes with its internal Default PHP Web Server, which will be used by default.

Note:

You can benefit from Zend's expertise by using the Zend PHP Web Server, which includes the Zend Debugger, in order to perform optimal debugging and profiling functionalities. See Zend PHP Web Server for more information.
