Windows PHP : Undefined Variable !! (Please Help)

[wmac]

Hello

I have been a php programmer on unix platforms for about 4 years now but now that I am trying to run my programs I have problem.

I always activate global variables in php.ini then this does not cause this.

1- I have some forms that sometimes send value of a variable but sometimes do not send any value for it depending on the case.

In unix platform when you use a variable which script has not received a value for it, it gives an empty value to it and you can continue working without any error message.

But in windows version it gives notices which disturb the screen:

PHP Notice: Undefined variable: mode in f:\inetpub\wwwroot\am\editthread.php on line 42

How can I turn this feature off and force it to work exactly the same as unix version?

2- By the way have you seen other problems when porting from unix to windows? (Except those commands which are related with unix internal features)

Regards,
Mac

Oh thank you, I finally managed to solve it:

changed :

error_reporting = E_ALL

in php.ini to :

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

And everything went.

I just ran across this same problem today. It can be solved in your php.ini file by adjusting your error reporting settings. I can't remember off the top of my head, it's something like

E_ALL & ~ E_NOTICE

Search for error reporing in your php.ini file. It's set to E_ALL by default i believe. Just above it, there are a ton of comments. One has the exact line you need to use to fix this (looks something like what I put above). Change your error reporting to that and that'll fix the problem.
