trouble with set_error_handler()

[lawrence]

If I call this function at the top of the page, does that mean that
the function sendErrorsPhpTo Pds() is now called everytime there is an
error? Does this still work if I also go
error_reporting (0);

??????



function setErrorHandlin gToEmail() {
// 11-22-04 - this is listed at the top of configPublicEve nts.php and
configAdminEven ts.php.
// The idea here is that we want to send all PHP errors to myself, so
I can have a better
// idea about where the software is screwing up.

$old_error_hand ler = set_error_handl er("sendErrorsP hpToPds");
}

Did you read the manual? <http://in2.php.net/set_error_handl er>
Look at the second parameter (PHP5). Custom error handler will
_usually_ take precedence except for Fatal, compile and parser errors.

You've got it exactly backwards, near as I can figure. From the site:

----------------

Sets a user function (error_handler) to handle errors in a script.
Returns a string containing the previously defined error handler (if
any), or FALSE on error. If the previous handler was a class method,
this function will return an indexed array with the class and the
method name.

This function can be used for defining your own way of handling errors
during runtime, for example in applications in which you need to do
cleanup of data/files when a critical error happens, or when you need
to trigger an error under certain conditions (using trigger_error() ).

Glad to see you've analyzed the manual. The next step is "touch and
feel"--which is nothing but trying simpler scripts to see how the
function really works. Then, you have the answer.

Neither of the functions pages on www.php.net have made clear to me if
custom error handlers still work when error_reporting is set to 0. I'm
wondering if someone on this newsgroup knows the answer to that
question.
