Status: Closed
Bug Type: PHP options/info functions
Operating System: Linux 2.4.20-pre5
PHP Version: 4CVS-2002-09-10
New Comment:
Of course it hasn't, you are using a CVS version from today. If you
were using a released version you might have a case for complaining,
but you aren't.

Unfortunately, this (html_errors) default setting of "On" is described
in ini_set() but not in the documentation for the configuration file.
Moreover, the TWO distributed php.ini- files both have html_errors =
Off commented out. One implication is that uncommenting this would
CHANGE the behavior however, I have also seen this format used to
indicate defaults.
But I guess my point is that the phpinfo() documentation has not been
changed to reflect the behavior when used as an Apache 2 module. In
particular, the function documentation does not indicate that the
behavior of the function is modified by the value for html_errors in
the php.ini file.

There is no behavioural change for standard installs. The default
setting for html_errors is on, so only people who specifically changed
their php.ini file to turn off html tags around their error messages
will have html tags stripped from their phpinfo() output as well.

I have checked the manual. I see no place where this change in behavior
of phpinfo() is documented, except in the NEWS section of the source
code where the implication is that it was changed for the CLI but not
the Apache module version.
I am happy to be corrected but considering that the large amount of
preprinted PHP installation guides refers to this use of phpinfo() to
test an installation, this is not exactly a subtle behavior change.
Regards.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to
report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
Turn on html_errors in php.ini. This was recently changed to allow the
CLI and CGI modules to have a pretty phpinfo() too.
