Did you make sure that you declared $USER (or $_USER in 1.3) to be global? If so, I\'d recommend using errorlog (or COM_errorLog in 1.3) to print out debug messages.

Actually, it looks as though you are making a custom hack. A good idea is to declare a global debug variable and check that to see if you should print out debug messages:

$_<libname>_DEBUG = false;

then in your functions:

function foo() {
global $_<libname>_DEBUG;

if ($_<libname>_DEBUG) {
COM_errorLog(\"<some message or variable\", 1);
}

This will print your message to error.log. That way when your or someone else wants to debug the code they just set $_<libname>_DEBUG = true and wala....you get debug messages.

Replace <libname> with a logical name for your code library. If you are working on an image library, for example, use IMG for your lib name. Then your debug variable would be $_IMG_DEBUG.

Make sense?
