get php to validate its self with php check syntax

Did you know that php has a syntax checking function built into it?

Well it does and this is how you can use it to check your php files for errors, rather than just running them and hoping for the best. 

Note: i could not get this one woking on my test code, im not sure if its supported still. 

PHP

$error_msg = "";
$file = "index.php";
if(!php_check_syntax($file, &$error_msg)) {
   echo "Errors were found in the file $file: $error_msg";
} else {
   echo "The file $filename contained no syntax errors";
}

For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, or a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life.

When defining custom counter styles, the negative descriptor lets you alter the representations of negative counter values, by providing a way to specify symbols to be appended or prepended to the counter representation when the value is negative.
