I took a look at this, it's a good idea for smaller sites. I would suggest that you figure out a way to put a rate limit on the number of E-mails that are sent warning the admin, though. On my site we receive over a million page views a day...When something gets broken I don't want to have 10,000 E-mails in my inbox. In addition, there are many black hats out there who might be tempted to use this an exploit. I once had a script that told the user "Error blah blah...An E-mail has been sent to our support staff to notify them of the problem." Of course some people decided to call the script thousands of times and fill up the hard drive on our mail server. Of course, not all sites are going to have issues like this...But I think if you're going to be releasing modules it might be a good idea to include some notes for sites that MIGHT. Jeremy
