I am purposely trying to make mistakes in the setup, but whenever my php script has a mistake it has an HTML block output with the error when I just want a string output(refer to image).</p> <p>Heres the code I am using</p> <pre><code>// We will now set up our MySQL database login. The values should be self-explanatory. $sqlhost = "localhost"; $sqlusername = "unity"; $sqlpassword = "mypass123"; //we will now connect to our database $sqlcon = mysql_connect($sqlhost, $sqlusername, $sqlpassword) or die("Could not connect to database: " . mysql_error()); </code></pre> <p>When I have all the information it works fine and the rest of the code runs without an error. But if my password is wrong or the user doesn't have access then I get this error</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/G4Ev0.jpg" alt="Error I am trying to avoid"></p> <p>I am retrieved the information from this page and it needs to be sent as plan text to be displayed properly. What I mean by this is that any HTML tags like <code>&lt;div&gt;, &lt;br&gt;, &lt;a&gt;,</code> etc and just generally makes the text output look bad. I want this to just display the text at the bottom the page because that logs the error itself. I dont need it to log twice and I dont need it to be formatted fancy. I need it in plain readable text so that if a user has an error they can send me the short text and I will be able to walk them through the fix. </p>

    1. CODid you read the manual regarding error reporting and display? The answer to your question can be found there. Also, don't use mysql_* for database access, they're old, barely maintained and deprecated in all but name.

    2. CONo I have not, I'm not big on PHP, I do mostly C# and just needed a simple PHP backend file. I did some google searches for awhile and didn't turn anything up besides completely turning error reporting off which I didn't feel was the best idea. And what should I use in replace of mysql_*? is there something newer/better for connecting to a database?

    3. CO@ViperCode What you're likely looking for is the display_errors setting. If display_errors is set to off, then errors will still be logged. There's also html_errors though (though your screenshot looks like error HTML generated by xdebug, so you might need to find the right xdebug setting).

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
