Strict standards on shred hosting (can't edit php.ini)

Permalink
Hi all

My site has been running for a number of months but has recently just descended into a "Strict Standards" nightmare.

You can visit it here:

I am on a shared hosting system and their support has said that they won't change the php.ini file for me to turn error reporting off. I have added the following code to a .htaccess file to no avail:

php_flag display_startup_errors off
php_flag display_errors off
php_flag html_errors off


Can anyone give any advice? need to get it sorted for my client :(

probably this webhost doesn't allow you to override the ini settings with a htaccess file. if they are really this strict then i'm pretty sure that this is the case. can't you suggest your client with another host?

i can't even load the website :o

Sigh. They are a really irritating host company (I mention no name :) ) but my client has had a contract with them for years now and will not change. I tried to switch them when I started building the site but to no avail. Ill ask them if they allow the override. Thanks for the help :)

Ok, so here is an update. The host company allows users to override the php.ini settings with a .htaccess file but all my attempts to add code that gets rid of the "strict standards" errors have failed. Does anyone have any advice?
