Note Submitter: Jamie Burns ---- If you find yourself writing lots of code to simply check if variables exist (often from form submissions), to avoid warnings if error reporting is set to E_ALL then this might be helpful to you: <? error_reporting(E_ALL); // this will trigger error... if ($doesntexist != '') echo("foobar"); // this will not trigger error, but is lots of code to read/write! if (isset($doesntexist) && $doesntexist != '') echo("foobar"); // this will not trigger error, and is much cleaner code! if (@$doesntexist != '') echo("foobar"); ?> -- Jamie Burns. www.intuitioneshop.com
