How do you want to "send them"?
Do they click on something to get to the errors?
Or are you in the middle of processing your script, and now you think you
want to do a header re-direct?
A header redirect with something like:
<?php
header("Location:
http://example.com/error.php?errors[]=Redirects+suck&errors[]=Use+include";);
?>
*MIGHT* work...
Of course, you'd want to script the $errors array to get tacked on.
However, GET can be VERY limited in the amount of data transmitted on some
servers, so it would be much safer to just do:
<?php
if (count($errors)){
//Display any sort of "masthead" for your site here,
//Unless you already did that above.
require 'error_display.inc';
//DEFINITELY display any sort of "footers"
//to complement your "masthead" here,
//because we're about to...
exit;
}
?>
error_display.inc can be as simple as:
<?php
echo "<p class=\"error\">", implode("</p>\n<p class=\"error\">",
$errors), "</p>\n";
?>
Jeez, if it's that simple, why even bother with an include file?...
Only if you plan on using the same error layout all over your site.
