Hi,

For any developers whom are working in php7 and want straightforward bug fixes to work on, here are a couple warnings/deprecated php7 issues that I noted when I was testing the forms:

[03-Jun-2016 03:44:22 America/Los\_Angeles] PHP Warning: Declaration of C\_FormVitals::default\_action($form\_id) should be compatible with Controller::default\_action() in /var/www/openemr/interface/forms/vitals/C\_FormVitals.class.php on line 8

I have just run into these issues and I am working trying to solve them. I’ll let you know if I get anywhere with  
[03-Jun-2016 03:44:22 America/Los\_Angeles] PHP Warning: Declaration of C\_FormVitals::default\_action($form\_id) should be compatible with Controller::default\_action() in /var/www/openemr/interface/forms/vitals/C\_FormVitals.class.php on line 8

BTW, the system is throwing a zend\_mm\_heap error and a bunch of restarts.

Need help with this one:  
On the fee sheet

[24-Oct-2016 02:42:00 UTC] PHP Stack trace:  
[24-Oct-2016 02:42:00 UTC] PHP Notice: Undefined index: newcodes in C:\emr\_wamp\www\openemr\interface\forms\fee\_sheet\new.php on line 1226

I can see line 885 is

Lines 1224 - 1226  
// If new billing code(s) were ed, add their line(s) here.  
//  
if ($\_POST[‘newcodes’]) {

But newcode can’t be selected because it is hidden and the value is empty. Am I reading that right?
