Re: Error trapping

Try writing a custom error handler. Chech out http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/error.php for a good article on the subject. Pay particular attention to the bit at the end about output buffering since I assume that what you would want to do is send a redirect header to the browser if the script fails to work.
