This is what PDO does .. you essentially get to choose what happens. // let's have exceptions instead of silence. // other modes: PDO_ERRMODE_SILENT (default - check $stmt->errorCode() and $stmt->errorInfo())

//              PDO_ERRMODE_WARNING (php warnings)

$dbh->setAttribute(PDO_ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO_ERRMODE_EXCEPTION); regards, Lukas Smith smith@backendmedia.com _______________________________ BackendMedia www.backendmedia.com berlin@backendmedia.com Linn Zwoch Smith GbR Pariser Str. 44 D-10707 Berlin Tel +49 30 83 22 50 00 Fax +49 30 83 22 50 07
