Hello,recently, the company needed an PHP script to capture error,i try to use “set_error_handler”,but it can’t capture fatal error,like redeclare a function,then I try to change a way that use “register_shutdown_function”，but I found it that also unable to capture above mentioned errors at the end of the script. my php version is 7.0.1

Hi All, I have touched upon exceptions earlier. However I am still not sure if I am handling them correctly. try { ... ... ... }catch(Exception $e){ if($prod === true) // In production mode { header("Location: exceptions/errors.php") exit(); } if($dev === true) // In development mode { echo $e->getMessage(); // & if needed log the errors / exceptions into a file. exit(); } } I would like to ask if using the function header() to load the errors.php page is a good and safe practice. Or is there a better way to load the errors.php. If I load the errors page as in the snippet, do I also have to log the errors myself in some files or is php going to do that in any case. Any improvements or suggestions are welcome. Thanks all ! P.S. Googling exceptions gives loads of information but seldom does it touch the issue of loading an errors page when an exception occurs.

[Linux] PHP Notice: Undefined variable: connection in /var/www/html/popreport/functions.php on line 23 PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function query() on a non-object in /var/www/html/popreport/functions.php on line 23 The fuction output in the following program is called from another file called records records-board.php If you look at the program below you'll see that I did define $connection above line 23 in the file functions.php And for the second error I'm really not getting it because that same foreach loop was working fine with the exact same argument list when it was in the file records-board.php, but now that I've copied most of the code from records-board.php and placed it in functions.php all the sudden my program can't see the variable $connection and has a problem with my foreach loop on line 23. Again, both of those lines worked fine when they were in another file. functions.php <?php //session_start(); // open a DB connectiong $dbn = 'mysql:dbname=popcount;host=127.0.0.1'; $user = 'user'; $password = 'password'; try { $connection = new PDO($dbn, $user, $password); } catch (PDOException $e) { echo "Connection failed: " . $e->getMessage(); } $sql = "SELECT full_name, tdoc_number, race, facility FROM inmate_board WHERE type = 'COURT'"; function output() { foreach($connection->query($sql) as $row) { echo "<tr><td>$row[full_name]</td></tr>"; } } ?> records-board.php <? include 'functions.php'; php output(); ?> Any ideas?
