PHP Error Log

Greetings, I'm trying to figure out why or how to make php report all it's errors to a separate file. in my php.ini , I have display_errors off, and log_erros on and then for the error_log field I have error_log = /my/path/logs/php_errors yet, php or apache are taking the logs, and putting them in the error_logs which also contain 404 errors etc from sections that don't use php. I can't figure out what to do .. do I have to use the syslog facility and then configure syslogd for this ? if so, then how can I specify the syslog levels (crit,kern etc) ?
