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!)
