php.ini check

[simrx11]

The last thread I started suggested that I alter my php.ini file so that it displays errors but I didn't know how to do that. I read some other threads and I'm surmising that you add "ini_set('display_errors', 1);" in a script? Is that right? If it is, what is the one for the error reporting setting?

INI setting done by you is correct, you have to also write following line in your code

ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set("error_reporting",E_ALL);

Oh good, thanks. I was reading about E_STRICT because E_ALL excludes it. php.net's description : "Enable to have PHP suggest changes to your code which will ensure the best interoperability and forward compatibility of your code." Sounds good to me. Is there a reason it's excluded from E_ALL?

There is. These are not errors, but suggestions. If they were part of E_ALL, many script would require a lot of work to run without throwing error messages.

 

If you want to enable E_STRICT use

error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT);
