Hi everyone, Recently we installed a custom error handler for PHP, that shows a nifty error screen when critical errors occur in PHP scripts. Also, the script sends mails when not so critical errors have occurred. Now I've noticed that Smarty generates an error in line 866 of Smarty.class.php (version 2.3.0). In get_php_resource a check is done to see if the resource exists by using is_file. To suppress any errors an @ sign is placed in front of it. But still this does trigger our error handler and thus generates mails. A more clean approach would be to use file_exists first. Line 866 is now: if (is_file($resource_name)) { I suggest it will be: if (file_exists($resource_name) && is_file($resource_name)) { Included is a diff file so that Smarty can be patched. Greetings, Yuri Weseman
