How can error handling be improved in PHP scripts to prevent the display of error messages on the website?

To prevent the display of error messages on a website, error handling in PHP scripts can be improved by setting the error_reporting level to only log errors and not display them to the user. This can be achieved by setting the display_errors directive to "off" in the php.ini file or using the ini_set function within the PHP script.

// Turn off error display in PHP script
ini_set('display_errors', 0);
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
