It’s not an E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR, you’d just get an E_WARNING. No, you'd get E_WARNING *and* function would not run. Where before it did run. That is the problem, not the warning - you add more cases where the function does not run when it did before, and that can have profound consequences on the code that depends on it. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/
