title: Php.ini production vs development
body: <p>I'm using XAMPP to develop on my localhost.  I would like to remove the PHP notices and keep only the warnings.  I know this is done through the <code>php.ini</code> file, however I'm having trouble locating it.  I followed the path in <code>phpinfo()</code> and it led me to <code>/xampp/php</code>. Inside this folder are two <code>php.ini</code> files: one for production and one for development.  I have set them both to the error reporting level I'd like, however I still receive notices which makes me believe that neither of these actually control error reporting.  I'm using the latest version of XAMPP.  So I guess my question is where is the true <code>php.ini</code> and what are these two other versions? </p>
