(Production mode > being the time to supress NOTICE and perhaps WARNING errors) Well, IMHO: debug: print error to output production: log error to system log / file So I think, all errors should go through in every case, just not to the same place ;) Actually set_error_handler() and trigger_error() docs should be updated (generally the main error handling page needs some update to make it more newbie friendly)... Actually the main example on page http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.errorfunc.php is far too complicated for those, who we would like to target. IMHO a more basic example is needed (maybe above the current one, or in place of it). Goba
