Hi,
I have extended the standard exception class to send me an email whenever an exception occurs.
I did that once. Once being the operative word... :-) Ended up with tens of thousands of emails one morning. At first I thought... "Wow, maybe my popularity has grown somewhat". But it hadn't.
I have something similar... a cron job that checks the error_log file every 10 minutes and sends me the contents if any exist. I also set a special header so I can be sure it's not spam and appropriately route it into my mail folder maze, Much less spammy :) Cheers, Rob. -- http://www.interjinn.com Application and Templating Framework for PHP
Real developers don't have errors in their code; they're undocumented features ;)
Hmmmm... I've always gone with "a wise man learns from his mistakes". Not that I'm saying I'm wise or anything... just seems a good goal to shoot for :) Cheers, Rob. -- http://www.interjinn.com Application and Templating Framework for PHP
