There are many ways to debounce a push-button. The program below
shows one way. Every time you push the button, you will increment the
count and it will be displayed in the terminal window (TeraTerm).
Example:
Quote:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13


The push-button must be connected to the PIC with the circuit shown
below. You can use 4.7K pullup (or 10K or some other value).
Code:

           +5v
            |
            <
            > 4.7K       
            <         ___ Push button switch 
To          |        _|_|_
PIC -----------------o   o------
pin                            |             
B0                            --- GND
                               -   

In the test program below, the internal PortB pullups are used, so the
external pull-up is not needed.

Test program:
Code:

#include <18F4520.h>
#fuses INTRC_IO, BROWNOUT, PUT, NOWDT
#use delay(clock=4M)
#use rs232(baud=9600, UART1, ERRORS)

#define BUTTON_PIN   PIN_B0 // This pin must have a pull-up.
#define DEBOUNCE_PERIOD_IN_MS  10
#define DEBOUNCE_COUNT  2

void wait_for_keypress(void);

//====================================
void main()
{
int8 count;

port_b_pullups(TRUE);

count = 0;

while(TRUE)
  {
   wait_for_keypress();
   count++;
   
   printf( "%u  ", count);
  }

}
//==================================

void wait_for_keypress(void)
{
char count;

// First, wait for the button to be released.   With the debounce
// values as given above, the button must be in the "up" state
// for two consecutive readings, spaced 10 ms apart.

count = 0;

while(TRUE)
  {
   if(input(BUTTON_PIN) == 1)
      count++;
   else
      count = 0;
   
   if(count == DEBOUNCE_COUNT)
      break;

   delay_ms(DEBOUNCE_PERIOD_IN_MS);
  }

// Now that the button is up, wait until the user presses it.
// In order for the keypress to be considered valid, based
// on the debounce values listed at the beginning of the
// program, the button must be held down for two consecutive
// readings, spaced 10 ms apart.

count = 0;

while(TRUE)
  {
   if(input(BUTTON_PIN) == 0)
      count++;
   else
      count = 0;
   
   if(count == DEBOUNCE_COUNT)
      break;

   delay_ms(DEBOUNCE_PERIOD_IN_MS);
  }

}
