[FX.php List] PHP question

[Bob Patin]

Hi,

Well, that helps a little, but what I really wish was that if there  
were a goofy error like a missing semicolon, that I could have an  
error message display that would tell me what type of error I've  
caused...

I have an error function I wrote for broken queries, but not for  
broken PHP... :)

Thanks,

Bob
