I have an app that is failing on the install. The vendor says I probably have ini_set() disabled. How can I check this?

I did some research on this, and it turns out that sometimes ini_set will not return FALSE, but an empty string. This is mentioned in the URL pointed out by gabriel1836. The best way to check if it works is to first check the disable_functions flag in php.ini to see if it is disabled, and then (if it is not disabled), change a value with it, and echo phpinfo() immediately after. If the value is changed under the local column, then you know ini_set works.
