Note Submitter: email_php_28429 at wg-karlsruhe dot de ---- if you cannot use php 5+ and if you do not know, when your administrator/provider will update to a newer php-version, this could be interesting. otherwise it surely is not. ;-) if you use the example above "example 1: using error handling in a script" with a php version prior to php 5, the part <?php $errortype = array( // ... E_STRICT => "Runtime Notice");?> will throw a notice like "Use of undefined constant E_STRICT - assumed 'E_STRICT'". of course one could avoid this problem, with <?php if(defined('E_STRICT')) define('E_STRICT', 2048); ?>. but this _could_ generate problems in future versions of php, if E_STRICT is set to 42 or something else. for this reason i suggest <?php $errortype = array( E_ERROR => 'error', E_WARNING => 'warning', E_PARSE => 'parsing error', E_NOTICE => 'notice', E_CORE_ERROR => 'core error', E_CORE_WARNING => 'core warning', E_COMPILE_ERROR => 'compile error', E_COMPILE_WARNING => 'compile warning', E_USER_ERROR => 'user error', E_USER_WARNING => 'user warning', E_USER_NOTICE => 'user notice'); if(defined('E_STRICT')) $errortype[E_STRICT] = 'runtime notice'; ?>. <?php // and instead of // error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT); // one can use error_reporting(E_ALL | (defined('E_STRICT')? E_STRICT : 0)); // to avoid that notice. ?> prosit seth
