How to Display The Error Messages in PHP
To display error messages in PHP, you can use the error_reporting
function to enable the display of errors, and the ini_set
function to set the error reporting level. You can also use the trigger_error
function to raise an error of your own.
Here is an example of how to display error messages in PHP:
// Enable error reporting error_reporting(E_ALL); // Set the error reporting level ini_set('display_errors', 1); // Trigger an error trigger_error('This is an error message'); // Divide by zero to trigger an error $x = 1/0;
You can also use the echo
or print
functions to display error messages, like this:
// Display an error message echo 'An error occurred'; // Display the error message and exit the script die('An error occurred');
Note that it is generally a good idea to turn off error reporting in a production environment, since displaying error messages to the user can reveal sensitive information about your code and server. You can do this by setting the display_errors
configuration directive to 0
.
// Disable error reporting ini_set('display_errors', 0);
