Re: Is there any way that PHP will issue a warning when using undeclared vars?

Unless I'm mistaken, which is quite possible considering that its been
years since I set my error_level, to anything other than E_ALL, but I
think you need to 'bitwise or' the error_levels instead of 'bitwise
and' them.

The default setting IIRC is E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE, which means all errors
except E_NOTICE. I think what you're looking for is simply E_ALL, but
so long as it can emit E_NOTICE's you should be okay.
