php-mysql error management

[Anon]

I want to handle database errors in php more gracefully than I am now.
Usually I do a
....or die("error statement");

But that still leaves a nasty php error message
"..... on line 32 " or something

I want to be able to continue with loading the page and show the error statement separately.

I am writing a simple browser based client to MySQL Db and I want to show the users SQL or other errors in a separate textbox... and not have the 'or die' instead.

Thanks for any suggestions.

You have to place a @ character before function name. Like $array = @mysql_fetch_array($result) or die('...');

Or without die and then you can check $array variable if it is fulfilled or not.
