You will notice at php.net/ini_set that some options are PHP_INI_SYSTEM|PHP_INI_PERDIR and some are PHP_INI_ALL, those can be set per directory. This 'when changable' information should be mentioned within every configuration description in the manual as opposed to only in the ini_set() docs. Or at least pointed somewhere. That said, am marking this as a documentation problem. Also note that equivelents for apache's httpd.conf and .htaccess should be mentioned somewhere too, not sure where (yet). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-23 10:43:13] iliaa@php.net http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ini-set.php Contains a comprehensive list of ini settings and it tells you whether a particular ini setting can be set per directory or not. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-23 10:41:51] petar at escape dot net dot au Thanks for the comments but I lodged the report *after* reading anything relevant in the docs I could find. I could find nothing about the 'registry per directory' win32 registry functionality but it exists. Where would I find info explaining which php.ini options are accepted for this function? I would be happy to accept any specific pointers to relevant docs from more knowledgable people than myself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
