having "html_errors" "off" causing phpinfo() outputting text-only doesn't make any sense to me, neither. i completely support [EMAIL PROTECTED]: phpinfo() is not an error, so it shouldn't depend on "html_errors". Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-29 23:56:01] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please explain why this is intended behavior, it does not make sense to me. html_errors is for html_errors, it's documented as such in php.ini: ; Disable the inclusion of HTML tags in error messages. ;html_errors = Off This says nothing about phpinfo() and IMHO it shouldn't affect it at all. The patch that resulted in this change is here: * add phpinfo() support for CLI. http://cvs.php.net/diff.php/php4/ext/standard/info.c?r1=1.193&r2=1.194 Why is html_errors being used in this way? When html_errors = off, errors remain readable when viewing in a browser but this textual version of phpinfo() == complete fubar in the browser (yes, one can use <pre>). One might turn html_errors off, for example, to use error_prepend_string/error_append_string in some way. Or they just don't want html in the errors... I don't see how this has anything to do with phpinfo() output. Why doesn't that patch instead check if sapi = cli? A person shouldn't be forced to have this textual phpinfo() if they decide to not include html in php generated errors. Please explain. phpinfo() is not an error! :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-14 15:17:42] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Where? Put the information in this bug report. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-14 13:39:31] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've submitted a note to document this behavior in the PHP Manual. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-14 06:31:19] [EMAIL PROTECTED] If this is intended behaviour, this seems to be a doc problem, since I can't find anything about in the docs. Regards Friedhelm Betz ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-14 06:19:32] [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's indeed intended like this (and I already forgave your typo :).
