I gave it five stars because it does what it's advertised to do, but I did have some issues with it. It wants to load the pages from the absolute path which means it misses the breakpoints. It did stop doing it some point, but it didn't seem related to the settings I tested. It was only after I found an old copy of the firefox debugger and used it in the firefox developer's version to get around their new add-in signing requirement that it stopped doing it. Maybe it's user error. I'm just not sure what's causing the issue or how to definitively control it. It needs an option to turn it off please. Or if there's a way, what is it? I couldn't figure it out. Even disabling the extension won't stop it. Chrome is my main development browser. I don't want to debug every time I reload the page to see my changes.

Thank you! Works like a charm, with ZendDebugger-5.5 on Linux x86_64

Coolest one among others. Is it possible to add "All pages on this site" option?
