Summary0000930: Feature to output errors to browser console
Description

I am suggesting a feature where instead of direct html error output JavaScript based output could be used to log all errors to browser console, as an configurable option. This could be done by adding new format to xdebug_stack.c which would then be used if some configuration variable would be set. I have already done this by simply modifying html_formats and it works great as far as I have tested it. Consider the attached code.

Additional Information

This code is probably broken, but it will serve us demonstration purpose quite well, i suppose.

static char jscript_formats[11] = {
"<script>xdebug = new Object();\n",
"xdebug.message = '%s: %s in %s on line %d';\n",
"xdebug.stack = new Array();\nstatic char jscript_formats[11] = {
"<script>xdebug = new Object();\n",
"xdebug.message = '%s: %s in %s on line %d';\n",
"xdebug.stack = new Array();\n",
#if HAVE_PHP_MEMORY_USAGE
"xdebug.stack.push(\"%10.4f %10ld %3d. %s",
#else
"xdebug.stack.push(\"%10.4f %3d. %s",
#endif
"'%s'",
" %s:%d\");\n\n",
"\n\nVariables in local scope (#%d):\n",
"if (typeof window.xdebuglog === 'undefined'){ console.log(xdebug); }else{ window.xdebuglog(xdebug); }</script>\n",
" $%s = %s",
" $%s = uninitialized\n",
"SCREAM: Error suppression ignored for\n"
};",
#if HAVE_PHP_MEMORY_USAGE
"xdebug.stack.push(\"%10.4f %10ld %3d. %s",
#else
"xdebug.stack.push(\"%10.4f %3d. %s",
#endif
"'%s'",
" %s:%d\");\n\n",
"\n\nVariables in local scope (#%d):\n",
"console.log(xdebug);</script>\n",
" $%s = %s",
" $%s = uninitialized\n",
"SCREAM: Error suppression ignored for\n"
};

How is this going to work if we are in a different context than a normal HTML tag - say an HTML attribute?

<p class="<script...>"> isn't really valid?
