Request #7220 Error Report on Function Arguments
Submitted: 2000-10-15 11:38 UTC Modified: 2006-05-29 22:48 UTC

Status: Closed Package: Feature/Change Request

function bob($arg1, $arg2) {
   ;
}

bob(4);
bob(5,2);

i.e., PHP will falselpy report the error with bob(4) in funcion Bob (i.e., line 1)
instead of bob(4) i.e., line 5.

This is quite annoying when tracking down function calls that have an
incorrect number of arguments

Not really a bug.. its the expected behaviour. Changing to feature request.

This sounds like a decent request, how about having the error report both locations?
