hey buglist,

no script necessary...;-)
last friday i installed php4.0.6 (coming from php3.0.17) and found out that it isn't possible any longer
to suppress a "forgotten ';' parse error" by setting up error_reporting(0) in my scripts...*sigh*

but if i code a "error_reporting = 0" into the php.ini, those error (forgotten ';') is suppressed
and cannot be shown again by setting "error_reporting(E_ALL)" in my script...;-(

is that the intented aim?!

i known about the many, many error-levels and there possibilities, but it would be nice to have
the chance to suppress or not those trivial errors in my scripts as well, if desired.

bye,
daniel

This is not possible in the script itself, since it is FIRST parsed, and only later executed (since PHP4). So error_reporting is set to 0 only _after_ it has been parsed.

Set error_reporing in .htaccess / your .conf file for this kind of stuff. By the way, parse_errors are caused by the script itself, no single external factor changes that. So, a parse error means that the script will never ever execute.

This should be more clear in the docs (error_reporting function), so changing to docbug.

And, if you once have checked all your .php files for parse errors, you're sure they'll never come unexpectingly. I personally see no use to surpress them...
