In many cases die() is too severe. Often, trigger_error() using the E_USER_ERROR level will achieve the desired effect in a much tidier fashion. Like so: mysql_connect("localhost", "user", "database", "pass") or trigger_error("Could not connect to MySQL database", E_USER_ERROR); Note: This will generate two errors. Since mysql_connect() is unsilenced (@) the connection failure will issue a warning, while your trigger_error() call will issue a fatal error. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.die.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+27593 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+27593 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+27593
