errors - how can i hide it?

[map200uk]

this is a weird request (i think?) but i need to make it so certain errors are not shown

 

Warning: symlink() [function.symlink]: File exists in /opt/lampp/htdocs//phpdb/finddir.php on line 47

 

this is the error shown if the recursive function has already scanned the given directory-it will still try to create a symlink is there anyway to turn this error off?

 

 

Although i suppose in practice would be better for me to check say

 

if store dir .file=symlink bla bla

else create link?

you can use error surpession with @ before the function call or

 

ini_set('error_reporting', 0);

cheers bud, i suppose though its best if i check if there is a symlink first, to save the command being executed again, iguess:)

[ToonMariner]

that would be the preferred option yes.

just realised something, whilst creating symlinks will work for my original purpose...what can i do if there are 2 files, exact same filename, i can create the same symlink x2, in an ideal worl files would be named properly, so we wouldnt have 2 files of differeing content bearing the same name-but this isnt ideal!
