I can't believe this hasn't been solved yet. It has been more than 5 years people! RFC
2616 is very clear on proper HTTP status codes
(http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html). If some obscure browser handles return
codes improperly, that should be solved there, not in PHP. This is not 1990s anymore, IE is far from
being a dominant browser anymore.
So how about fixing this the right way? Just return status 5xx on parsing and similar errors, as
recommended (SHOULD) by HTTP 1.1 protocol. It shouldn't be that difficult.

Not just display_errors = off. I believe this effects display_errors =
stderr as well for similar reasons.

I would agree that this is a bug. If there has been a server error, we should not be returning a 200
response. If IE then does not display it, that is a problem for IE to look at. The wrong header
causes a lot of problems, especially for AJAX>

This is a BUG in my books. Until it is fixed, I can't simply tail an error log. Instead
I'd have to go manually exercise every feature & invoke every code path in my app &
painstakingly analyze the network responses of all my ajax calls to detect any possible errors.
Horrible.

Ah yes, I remember that. The IE limit a minimum of 512 byte of data to show the outputted data.
Perhaps there could be an ini setting to choose if the status code will be 200 or 500, with the
default being the current behaviour?
