So at the moment I'm just using a PEAR error handler to throw exceptions PEAR::setErrorHandling(PEAR_ERROR_CALLBACK, 'pearErrorHandler'); function pearErrorHandler($error) {

      throw new Exception($error->getMessage() . ' -- ' . $error->getDebugInfo());

}

        but using PEAR::setErrorHandling(PEAR_ERROR_EXCEPTION) would be easier.

With a difference of 3 extra lines, I don't see how this is difficult, less efficient, or inappropriate. I think your solution is the best one and shows the true flexibility of the PEAR_ERROR_CALLBACK and callbacks in general. Greg
