Zeradin Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Hey this has got to be an easy solution, but i can't find it i have this: <?php $id = $_GET['id']; $file = "xml/".$id.".xml"; $xml = simplexml_load_file($file) or die ("Unable to load XML file!"); if ($id == NULL){ echo "you fucked up!"; } else { echo '<h2 class="newstitle">'.$xml->title.'</h2> <span class="news"> </span> <table cellpadding="6" cellspacing="6" border="0" align="right"> <tr><td> <table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="4" border="1"> <tr> <td valign="top" width="200" align="center" class="news"> <img src="'.$xml->photo.'" alt="gamephoto" /><br /> <span class="news"><strong class="red"><br> Release Date:</strong><br /> '.$xml->rdate.'<br /> <br /> <strong class="red">Publisher: '.$xml->developer.'<br />Platform(s): '.$xml->platforms.'</strong> <br /> </span> </td> </tr> </table> </td></tr></table>'; echo nl2br('<span class="news">'.$xml->info.'<br /><br></span>'); echo '<table width="100%" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="3"> <tr> <td width="14%" valign="top"> Put reviewer photo here </td> <td width="86%" valign="top" class="news"> reviewer write up goes here...along with link to their profile </td> </tr> </table>'; } ?> i type in the review.php?id=8 the 8.xml is in xml/ and it doesn't load additionally i have something else that does basically the same thing referring to the same folder and that one works when i load the page though i just get a blank screen. i look at the source... nothing. what gives?

Maq Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Just tested your script on one of my sites and it worked fine. I had to take out the xml objects.

Zeradin Posted August 15, 2008 Author Share Posted August 15, 2008 i am so annoyed right now, they were working perfectly before... now i can't get them to display anything even if i put an echo at the beginning of the script before the xml file calls Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/119839-solved-file-showing-blank-page/#findComment-617420 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maq Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Since your script worked for me try checking some external factors such as, the IP your pointed at. Do you have a dev and a live site? I don't think it's your code... Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/119839-solved-file-showing-blank-page/#findComment-617425 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeradin Posted August 15, 2008 Author Share Posted August 15, 2008 wow i found the problem my ftp client was uploading versions of the files that were from 1969 so everytime it uploaded a file it'd upload it blank... even though the files i had were populated i restarted the client and it fixed it... weiiiird sorry for wasting your time.
