Erm, that was kinda my point.

So, in PHP 4, there's no incentive for such programmers to set error_reporting to some other level.

Sure there is. You may shut off (or otherwise configure) error reporting site-wide, or application-wide, whereas you'd use the error handler only in parts of the app/site. Let alone the fact that it's not necessarily the same person developing the application and deploying it. In short, if you have applicative code in your error handler, it should not be dependant on site-specific setup of error_reporting. Zeev
