Hello,

I'm curious about the strategies that others use for running more
complex applications in the debugger. A content management system for
example might require session data and user input in order to run it's code, all of which gets processed along a journey through a large stack. How can I do 'something' in a browser and then run that same request in
the debugger?

I see that Apache::DB does something similar where you can initiate a
request in a browser and then control it in the debugger. But what if
the app is not running mod_perl?

If the program is a CGI then you can wrap it such that it runs ptkdb and
remotes the debugger display to your screen via X.  Then you invoke it
form a browser and the debugger runs on the server invocation itself.
Look up ptkdb documentation.
