I wanted to run "php -w" on my include files on the live server to reduce overhead. But php -w causes parse errors in the include files. Here's an example of what happens: tanner /php_files % php -l misc.inc No syntax errors detected in misc.inc tanner /php_files % php -w misc.inc > misc.stripped.inc tanner /php_files % php -l misc.stripped.inc PHP Parse error: parse error, unexpected '&', expecting ']' in misc.stripped.inc on line 2 Parse error: parse error, unexpected '&', expecting ']' in misc.stripped.inc on line 2 Errors parsing misc.stripped.inc Of course i try to look at line 2 to see what the error is, but now the whole file is on line 2, so there's no way to know what's breaking! please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks!
