PHP Question...
 

why the hell, is it when I have an error in the coding and I upload it and go to the page, it shows up completely BLANK/WHITE and says nothing... If I go to view source, it shows some html tags and that is it...

Awhile back, it used to say what type of error, and on what line it is on... but now, if I forget a semi colon for example, it doesn't say anything, its just completely blank..

is there a code to turn the error display back on or some shit?

thx

Try putting this at the top of your script(s)

That will limit the type of errors it displays... you can also do this one to report ALL errors.

If you have access to the php.ini it is better to change display_errors to '1' instead of doing @ini_set('display_errors', '1');

thanks for the effort man, but its STILL doing the same thing :( i tried both of them...

Is the code you are running php only or is it html + php, are you parsing .php extension, or something else like .html for php?

If you take out the @ before ini_set does it return an error? : )

Do you have access to the php.ini file?

it is HTML + php...

its the standard .php extension.

no, and no. :winkwink:

I had some problems like this one time and it was because in my echo I had used "" instead of ' '.

Make a seperate file and put nothing but this code in it:

Run that script from your server and tell me if the variable 'display_errors' is set to 'Off' :)

You may want to turn on error notices while debugging this, also does the HTML come up or is it completely blank?

It's so annoying not having access to everything. :(

Good luck.

Try running the browser WITHOUT Call of Duty going in a background window. :Graucho

display_errors are both set to On (for local and master value)

display_startup_errors are both set to off

error_reporting are both set to "81"

html_errors On On

ignore_repeated_errors Off Off

i've tried turning on the errors from what people suggested in this thread...

and only the very initial HTML coding is displayed...

I'm all out of ideas man... i've had this problem many times but the first code I posted always fixed it.

Trying contacting your host and ask them about it.

The error_reporting on my server is set to '2047'.... not sure if that will help you at all :)

lol, i tried deleting it man.. that only lasted for 2 days... wanna play? :(

yeah, thanks for the help though.

Make it:

html

php

html

See if the php is returning any results and if the second chunk of html is being displayed, also make sure that you have ErrorLog enabled for the domain in your httpd.conf and tail -f the errorlog to see if apache is having issues parsing something or if its a more critical error than just a php coding issue.
