Hi folks. I've just done a FC5 clean build + yum update and then moved my web sites across from a FC4 system and now I'm getting lots of 'PHP Strict' warnings that I would like help with. I know I can get rid of them by telling PHP not to log them, but I'd rather fix the faults than hide the messages. Firstly, it complained about timezone not being set, so in php.ini I set the date.timezone value to 'GMT0', 'UTC' (which is what it was saying it was defaulting to) and 'Europe/London' (Taken from Appendix H). None of these values made any effect as I still got the error message about it not being set. The only way I got the error messages to stop was to add date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London'); to the top of my sql.inc Can anyone suggest why changing the php.ini file didn't work. I did of course restart httpd after every edit of the file. Secondly, I'm getting lots of :- PHP Strict Standards: Only variables should be passed by reference in ... on line ... One such line is :- $r_dets=array_shift(loadhash3("select r_id as key, * from requests where r_id = $dets[o_r_id]",0)); where loadhash3 returns a hash of records with the format 'key' -> hash of fields. In this instance it only returns 1 row from the database, and the hash of fields I want into $r_dets ($r_dets['r_id'], $r_dets['r_regno'], etc). Without the array_shift I don't get the error message, but have to refer to fields as $r_dets[$dets['o_id']]['r_regno'] which obviously isn't as nice. Can anyone tell me why this is not the right way to do things, and how I should change the code to improve it.
