What does your code look like?

I just realized that when called a second time, set_error_handler() returns my custom error handler but it is never triggered. Code looks like this: <?php

    if (set_error_handler('core_error_handler', E_ALL) === NULL)
        echo 'could not set error handler<br />';

    trigger_error('test error');

    var_dump(set_error_handler('core_error_handler', E_ALL));

function core_error_handler($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline) {

    echo 'error...';

} ?> This gives me the following output: could not set error handler Notice: test error in /var/www/.../core.inc.php on line 5 core_error_handler Have you thought about the fact that you're pointing to a function that's not been defined yet when the error is triggered?

And set_error_handler() returns NULL because there isn't a previously defined error handler, not because it failed. Hope this helps.
