Control PHP Error Reporting With .htaccess

Create .htaccess file or use existing .htaccess file in your hosting site. Add below line at the top of file content.
[sourcecode language=’php’] # to stop php startup errors
php_flag display_startup_errors off
# to stop all php errors and warning
php_flag display_errors off
[/sourcecode] You can also control level of error reporting. Here is the .htaccess syntax:
[sourcecode language=’php’] # php directive for setting error level
php_value error_reporting integer
[/sourcecode] Example:
[sourcecode language=’php’] # report everything except run-time notices.
php_value error_reporting 8191
# report both fatal and non-fatal compile-time warnings by the Zend Engine
php_value error_reporting 128
# report run-time notices, compile-time parse errors, run-time errors and warnings
php_value error_reporting 8
# report fatal run-time errors and unrecoverable errors
php_value error_reporting 1
[/sourcecode]

    Hello..
    How not to display any notices and display the rest?

    php_value error_reporting 8191 does show notices.

    I’m with Martyn, how do you do: error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE); ???
