Re: namespace trouble

Yeah. Andy has it covered. The notice is just telling you that you have set a value for a variable that is not previously declared. PHP is generous enough to define it on the fly and make it's best guess as to the type but it does want you to know it's not prescribed form. You'll either have to get in the habit of declaring variables or turn that level of error reporting on/off. Regardless of what you have in the php.ini file you can temporarily change it on a script by script basis with the "ini_set ('error_reporting', E_whatever);" and "ini_set ('display_errors', n);" directives in the scripts.

This might have something to do with your 'error_reporting' configuration option if it is giving you a Notice... try suppressing the notices by taking out the E_NOTICE or putting a ~ in front of it to turn it off... error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE Or if you don't need (or want) the errors/notices, just set display_errors = Off.
