Errors won't show up?

Question

PHP doesn’t show any kind of errors

I don't know why but when i test this code:

<html>
<?php
header('Location: http://www.example.com/');
?>

I don't get any errors like "headers already sent" which i should. Any ideas why the error won't show up?

I'm using Apache on Windows 7 I have "error_reporting = E_ALL | E_STRICT" & "display_errors = On"

(1) does `phpinfo();` think it's on? (2) you may have automatic output buffering on, in which case this won't cause an error. — Wrikken, Nov 10 '12 at 19:15

Output buffering could be turned on automatically. In that case, an error won't be reported to you in your case. Check using ob_get_level

<?php
    echo ob_get_level() //at the beginning of your script.
    ...
    ...
?>

If the php.ini directive output_buffering is turned on, you'll get 1 as the return value.

@Mulligan I answered this on your other question :) http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13325398/output-after-header-function. Yes it is received, by the browser, (you can sniff outbound requests using fiddler and check) – Anirudh Ramanathan Nov 10 '12 at 19:56
Yes, sorry ut, I still don't fully understand. How would the script behave afeter execution of header function? If the 'echo' statment will be executed? – Mulligan Nov 10 '12 at 20:03
Yes. it will be executed, and sent along with a header containing the redirect code 302. But the browser will disregard the content. – Anirudh Ramanathan Nov 10 '12 at 20:04
