error warnings

[knuckle05]

Hi,

I'm wondering if there is anyway to turn on / off the error warnings displayed by PHP. I keep getting Warnings for unset variables at the top of my page, but they aren't actually errors.

Thx

The PHP runtime configuration directive "display_errors" can turn off everything. Not a good idea.

The PHP runtime configuration directive "error_reporting" can be changed so that it does not report warnings. Better, but still not a good idea.

You can use the "@" error-suppression operator. Also not a good idea.

I strongly recommend that you check to see whether a variable is set before you try to use it:

if (isset($somevariable))
{
//then do something with the variable
}
else
{
//then do something else
}

or conditionally initialize the variable:

if (!isset($somevariable))
{
$somevariable = 'somevalue';
}

//use the variable here.

Sounds like you have error_reporting set to a high level (E_ALL for example). Try setting it to a lower level,
for example

error_reporting(E_ERROR+E_PARSE);
