Re: should I be looking to eliminate all notices?

I've always gone by the rule that if you're making software that other people will see or use, make it clean. Sometimes I'll "cheat" and stick a @ symbol in front of a line to shut up errors and warnings for that particular line, but usually I only do that for speed optimization. (ie. if it's in a short loop that cycles many times). In any case, I don't think it's a good idea to rely on users disabling warnings and error messages from their PHP configuration file if you want the code to be portable. Personally, I leave all errors and warnings turned on, even for public PHP deployments. Ross wrote:

A quick one this morning. When coding should I be trying to code so there are no notices or is it ok to turn them off. I don't really want to do a isset check for every index I have. Ross
