With judicial use of var_dump() (sometimes with Var_Dump from PEAR).

I used to like the very simple network debugger back in the PHP3 era.

The Komodo IDE can be used to locally or remotely debug PHP (if you  
control the PHP extensions directory of the server), but its  
commercial price tag may exceed the OP's pain threshold.  On the plus  
side, it also knows all the top scripting languages, runs on Linux/OS  
X/Windows for a single price tag, and has a acceptable editor  
(although if you are heavily into customizing your editor even the  
4.0alpha releases will probably send you screaming back to your  
favorite for major editing chores).
