Multiple Exceptions
It is possible for a script to use multiple exceptions to check for multiple conditions. It is possible to use several if..else blocks, a switch, or nest multiple exceptions. These exceptions can use different exception classes and return different error messages: class customException extends Exception { public function errorMessage() { //error message $errorMsg = 'Error on line '.$this->getLine().' in '.$this->getFile() .': '.$this->getMessage().' is not a valid E-Mail address'; return $errorMsg; } } $email = "someone@example.com"; try { //check if if(filter_var($email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL) === FALSE) { //throw exception if email is not valid throw new customException($email); } //check for "example" in mail address if(strpos($email, "example") !== FALSE) { throw new Exception("$email is an example e-mail"); } } catch (customException $e) { echo $e->errorMessage(); } catch(Exception $e) { echo $e->getMessage(); } ?> Example explained: The code above tests two conditions and throws an exception if any of the conditions are not met:

Re-throwing Exceptions
Sometimes, when an exception is thrown, you may wish to handle it differently than the standard way. It is possible to throw an exception a second time within a "catch" block. A script should hide system errors from users. System errors may be important for the coder, but is of no interest to the user. To make things easier for the user you can re-throw the exception with a user friendly message: class customException extends Exception { public function errorMessage() { //error message $errorMsg = $this->getMessage().' is not a valid E-Mail address.'; return $errorMsg; } } $email = "someone@example.com"; try { try { //check for "example" in mail address if(strpos($email, "example") !== FALSE) { //throw exception if email is not valid throw new Exception($email); } } catch(Exception $e) { //re-throw exception throw new customException($email); } } catch (customException $e) { //display custom message echo $e->errorMessage(); } ?> Example explained: The code above tests if the email-address contains the string "example" in it, if it does, the exception is re-thrown:

Set a Top Level Exception Handler
The set_exception_handler() function sets a user-defined function to handle all uncaught exceptions. function myException($exception) { echo "Exception: " , $exception->getMessage(); } set_exception_handler('myException'); throw new Exception('Uncaught Exception occurred'); ?> The output of the code above should be something like this: Exception: Uncaught Exception occurred In the code above there was no "catch" block. Instead, the top level exception handler triggered. This function should be used to catch uncaught exceptions. Rules for exceptions
