My struggles to get PhpStorm installed are bearing some fruit, but I am still having at least one nagging issue.

I have created two configurations for running code in one of the browsers. One is for the built-in web server using port 63342, and the other uses port 80. Xdebug is installed and verifies inside the connection for the port 80 config.

If I choose any one of the browser buttons in PhpStorm, the code runs in the selected browser but using the configured port. Further, if I select the config for port 80, make sure the browser bug is listening, and then press PhpStorm's debug button, the external browser loads, and then pauses at the break point I set. If I go into PhpStorm I can then step through the program. So far so good!

But, the stepping doesn't affect what is being output to the browser or the debugging panel's output display (or console) until the program gets past all the breakpoints. (It does show the stepping.) Only after the code is done executing does the output appear. So, if I have a three line program, each with its own echo statement, and put a breakpoint before the second line I would expect to see the output from the echo statement from the first line. Unfortunately, I don't see anything output until the program completes. This just doesn't seem right.

Any ideas?

Seems like I'm closer than I've been. Thanks in advance.
