Also, I am getting "will not stay shared" messages in my Apache error log for both the time variable that I have "fixed" and the other variables. This error message seems to be the same scope issue we have been dealing with in this posting. This scope issue (my lack of mastering it) seems to be filling my error log up with lots of useless messages. This makes it harder to notice a useful error message. What can I do to keep my error log clean?
