What I am trying to do is create an error message within in a string that
whenever each function fails it echos this particular string out with it's
pertinent information.

i.e.
<?
$error_string = "Warning: unable to complete query in ".__FUNCTION__."name
in ".__FILE__;

function some_funct($var) {
  global $error_string;
  //doing something
  //error detected
  echo $error_string;
}
?>

Does this sounds feasible or is there another way to generate a dynamic
error message without giving the user to much information about the error if
it occurs?
