Ooops, that should read:

implode(‘
’, $errors);

Instead of the foreach statement, I would have used implode(”, $errors); I think explode/implode are my most used functions next to empty/isset.

You’re absolutely right Jason, thanks very much for your tip. I was hoping people would mention the methods they use as it wasn’t practical to mention every way in this article Thanks again!

Why not use Exceptions?

if(!isset($string)) {
  throw new Exception('String has not been set!');
}

They're really not hard to use, and they offer a little better debugging control, with access to line numbers, file names, stack trace, etc... There's nothing wrong with the above example, I just wanted to pose an alternative solution.
