[news.eclipse.tools.php] PHP Executable vs. PHP Apache-Mod

[Aaron Howell <visualasparagus@xxxxxxxxx>]

this post is in reference to michael heilemann's post titled:
Anybody gets ZendDebugger 5.2.3 (Mac Intel) stop at breakpoints? Bug or 
configuration issue?

first, again thank you michael for your GREAT post regarding this 
issue.  i'm on an intel mac and am going to run through your process as 
well.  i've also spent a few days installing and re-installing various 
php eclipse plugins and have decided to go with PDT.

my question is in regards to a comment to the original post [ 
http://mprobst.de/SherlockWeb/?postid=2 ].  the comment is below.

...This appears to be using only the PHP Executable. Is that correct? 
If so, have you tried debugging using the PHP Web Server? I am told by 
those who know more than me, that using the PHP Executable to debug 
web-based applications is not the correct way to do things, due to some 
differences between them...

would you [ or perhaps someone else ] be able to expand on this 
question and perhaps elaborate on the issues/differences.
