Re: Re: Undefined variables

Personally, I would use error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE instead of E_PARSE; Both will get rid of the annoying "empty variable" notices, but your solution also gets rid of a number of important error messages that really are needed. If the website is available to members of the public, then error messages should go to a log file and not to the browser, so you will still want to know about problems in your code! (EG: such as using an array function on a string... using your setting won't tell you you've made the mistake!)
