Re: Re: errormessage: undefined variables - why define them?

Please also check out "error_reporting" in 'php.ini', there you can turn off Notice reporting. But for future reference, it's a good idea to define vars before you use them, to avoid problems down the road like vars already having values that you didn't count on (if you use register_globals). -- Scott Hurring Systems Programmer EAC Corporation scott (*) eac.com -- "Dash McElroy" <Dash@westonefcu.org> wrote in message news:ABA3F1F1A223D411BE6C006008A6F7E260434D@MSX1-PTON... > PHP will also bark at you if you don't put quotes around other functions, > like date: > > date(mdy); will bark at you while: > date("mdy"); will not. > > -Dash > > -----Original Message----- > From: Uwe Birkenhain [mailto:uwe.birkenhain@berlin.de] > Sent: Sunday, June 30, 2002 9:54 PM > To: php-windows@lists.php.net > Subject: [PHP-WIN] Re: errormessage: undefined variables - why define them? > > > It was again very easy, > I woke up this morning (at 6) and remembered that there are different > possibilites to adjust the behavior of errormessages in php.ini - and that > was it: "show all errormessages and warnings" - what I never have on the > server.
