[plug] [OT] PHP Global DEBUG varible constant

[Adam Ashley]

<?php  
    $DEBUG = 2;
    function capture_talk(){
       if ($_GLOBALS['DEBUG']) print "Debug is on<br>";
       if ($_GLOBALS['DEBUG'] >=2) print "Debug is on level 2<br>";
    }
?>

or if your not going to change the debug level once started executing

<?php
define('DEBUG', 2);

function printDebug() {
  print DEBUG;
}
?>
