I already read th page of the manual, but i still don't understand a lot of things. Below you will find a simple code that i ade for understanding more about this. In the code i'm triggering an error of type "E_USER_ERROR", so now i'm wondering why it is not considered as E_USER_ERROR in set_error_handler(). And if somebody can suggest an error (something real not just trigger_error) that can be intercepted by set_error_handler(), this will be very useful.here is the code: <?php function error_handler($errno, $errstr, $filename, $lineno, &$context) { echo $errno. "<br>"; echo $errstr. "<br>"; switch($errno) { case E_USER_ERROR: $str = ""; $str = "ERROR MESSAGE: ". $errstr; $str .= "<br>The application will be stopped just after the following error message:<br>"; $str.= "<br>File: ". $filename; $str.= "<br>Line number: ". $lineno; $GLOBALS['toto'] = $str; //return $GLOBALS['error']; break; case E_USER_WARNING: echo "ERROR MESSAGE: ". $errstr; echo "<br>The application will continue but there is a warning:<br>"; echo "<br>File: ". $filename; echo "<br>Line number: ". $lineno; break; case E_USER_NOTICE: echo "ERROR MESSAGE: ". $errstr; echo "<br>The application will continue but there is a notice:<br>"; echo "<br>File: ". $filename; echo "<br>Line number: ". $lineno; break; } } echo "Testing set_error_handler<br><br><br>"; error_reporting(E_USER_ERROR|E_USER_WARNING|E_USER_NOTICE); set_error_handler('error_handler'); ini_set('error_reporting', 0); trigger_error("The string for testing the error", E_USER_ERROR); ?> ----- Original Message ---- From: Richard Heyes <richardh@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: It Maq <itmaqurfe@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2008 11:00:30 AM Subject: Re: Intercepting errors > I'am already using that.

Is there anyway to test that? Read the manual page. I believe it handles all except things like parse errors: "The following error types cannot be handled with a user defined function: E_ERROR, E_PARSE, E_CORE_ERROR, E_CORE_WARNING, E_COMPILE_ERROR, E_COMPILE_WARNING, and most of E_STRICT raised in the file where set_error_handler() is called."
