php print_r nice table

Question

I\'m looking to be able to produce a nicely formatted table with rows and columns from the contents of a print_r array statement?

Any ideas?

Answer 1

Here is another nice example that I found. Same output, longer code, little bit more color.

function print_nice($elem,$max_level=10,$print_nice_stack=array()){
if(is_array($elem) || is_object($elem)){
    if(in_array(&$elem,$print_nice_stack,true)){
        echo "RECURSION";
        return;
    }
    $print_nice_stack[]=&$elem;
    if($max_level<1){
        echo "nivel maximo alcanzado";
        return;
    }
    $max_level--;
    echo "";
    if(is_array($elem)){
        echo '';
    }else{
        echo '';
    }
    $color=0;
    foreach($elem as $k => $v){
        if($max_level%2){
            $rgb=($color++%2)?"#888888":"#BBBBBB";
        }else{
            $rgb=($color++%2)?"#8888BB":"#BBBBFF";
        }
        echo '";
    }
    echo "
ARRAY
';
        echo 'OBJECT Type: '.get_class($elem).'
';
        echo ''.$k."
";
        print_nice($v,$max_level,$print_nice_stack);
        echo "
";
    return;
}
if($elem === null){
    echo "NULL";
}elseif($elem === 0){
    echo "0";
}elseif($elem === true){
    echo "TRUE";
}elseif($elem === false){
    echo "FALSE";
}elseif($elem === ""){
    echo "EMPTY STRING";
}else{
    echo str_replace("\n","*
\n",$elem);
}

}
