  <para>
   The <function>error_reporting</function> function sets the
   <link linkend="ini.error-reporting">error_reporting</link>
   directive at runtime.  PHP has many levels of errors, using
   this function sets that level for the duration (runtime) of
   your script. If the optional <parameter>level</parameter> is
   not set, <function>error_reporting</function> will just return
   the current error reporting level.

     <listitem>
      <para>
       The new <link linkend="ini.error-reporting">error_reporting</link>
       level. It takes on either a bitmask, or named constants. Using named 
       constants is strongly encouraged to ensure compatibility for future 
       versions. As error levels are added, the range of integers increases, 
       so older integer-based error levels will not always behave as expected.
      </para>
      <para>
       The available error level constants and the actual
       meanings of these error levels are described in the
       <link linkend="errorfunc.constants">predefined constants</link>.

   <simpara>
    Most of <constant>E_STRICT</constant> errors are evaluated at the
    compile time thus such errors are not reported in the file where
    <link linkend="ini.error-reporting">error_reporting</link> is enhanced
    to include <constant>E_STRICT</constant> errors (and vice versa).
   </simpara>
  </warning>
  <tip>
   <simpara>
    Passing in the value <literal>-1</literal> will show every possible error,
    even when new levels and constants are added in future PHP versions.
    <!-- FIXME PHP_6
     The
    <constant>E_ALL</constant> constant also behaves this way as of PHP 6.
