php print_r nice table

Question

Hi there

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?

Try this out, could be improved but it works.

function myprint_r($my_array) {
    if (is_array($my_array)) {
        echo "<table border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=3 width=100%>";
        echo '<tr><td colspan=2 style="background-color:#333333;"><strong><font color=white>ARRAY</font></strong></td></tr>';
        foreach ($my_array as $k => $v) {
                echo '<tr><td valign="top" style="width:40px;background-color:#F0F0F0;">';
                echo '<strong>' . $k . "</strong></td><td>";
                myprint_r($v);
                echo "</td></tr>";
        }
        echo "</table>";
        return;
    }
    echo $my_array;
}
