In reply to Aneeq. It is more of a check list of things, I would say.

There is a very useful list of PHP standards we should use in development. This list can be found at the web address below. http://phphelp.co/2012/06/04/what-are-some-common-php-coding-standards/

In reply to sEver.

I agree, however, I can’t please everyone with every article.
Developers need to understand that the proper way to deal with errors is to fix them, not hide or ignore them.
For the average user, they expect their software to work – they don’t want to have to twiddle and fiddle with it.
Following the paths to this article, it seems most people come here because they are experiencing problems with XAMPP 1.7.4 or 1.7.7 and Joomla! – which this tip won’t fix. The proper way to deal with their problem is to change the flag controlling error reporting in PHP to not flag deprecated constructs as errors.
This article was originally written to placate those people who freaked out when they saw the Display_Errors was set to ON when Joomla! recommended OFF.
Thanks for your comment.

Drop the preaching on importance of error messages. M
Most people who want this turned off wont fix any bugs anyway.
I just want to run the site locally, modify what I need to modify, see that it runs and upload it to production. I could care less about some php warnings as long as the thing runs without exploding the server, it’s “good enough”.

In reply to arcadaxe. What is not working? I am going to guess that you are trying to install Joomla! under XAMPP 1.7.4 or XAMPP 1.7.7 - if that is the case, then I recommend changing to XAMPP 1.7.3 (actually, I recommend it for whatever you are using) . The only reason you would need to use XAMPP 1.7.4 or 1.7.7 is because you absolutely need to use: PHP 5.3.5 or PHP 5.3.8 and Perl 5.10.1. In most cases, this is not necessary. If you insist on using them, then find the flag error_reporting and change it to look as follows: error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_DEPRECATED Joomla! uses a lot of deprecated PHP code and XAMPP 1.7.4 and 1.7.7 are configured to choke on it. By disabling the NOTICE and DEPRECATED flags, the PHP interpreter will let them pass. Another reason it may not be working is that there are errors in the code. Turning off the display of errors does not make them go away.
