The closest you can come is to set your error_reporting() to E_ALL. Then you'll get notices about undefined variables and keys for arrays, but the script will not die. You can do some FR at www.php.net/error_reporting. :) ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
