Error Display Suppress (On/Off)

[ccgorman]

I have installed PHP and Apache on my PC at home and it displays all the errors a page comes across like an undefined variable. This is useful for development, but is there a way to turn this off? I have some older sites that I developed with error suppression on (on another server) and I am too lazy to go through them and fix the areas with the errors.

So the question is how do you turn on and off the error displays, like undefined variables.

Thanks,
Chris

P.S. I know about individual items and using the @ symbol. I am talking global.

You can go into php.ini and set php engine to ignore all errors..
In php.ini find these lines

error_reporting= E_ALL; display all errors, warnings and notices
display_errors=On

...and change it to:
error_reporting = E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE;

Would you ever want to set display_errors=Off even when the site is live?
