[SOLVED] Blank pages

[cry of war]

I have been getting nothing but blank pages for a while now and its not showing me the errors on the page

so I was wonding if the blank page its self means something or there is an error i should be looking for.

 

I am using this to show me the errors on the php page

<?php
ini_set('display_errors', '15');
error_reporting(E_ALL);
?>

display_errors only takes a boolean value, eg 1 and 0 or On and Off or true and false.

 

ini_set('display_errors', 'On')

 

if you still dont get any errors. Then check your servers error logs. All errors should be written to your servers error logs by default.

There are a number of things that could cause that. Make a proof file that just has something like:

<?php
   echo "Why doesn't my code work?!
?>

 

Notice the lack of a quotation mark at the end (as well as a semicolon, but I don't think that would error with one line). If this outputs a white page then the problem is probably in the error outputting.

Look at ini directives and error handling functions for correct use of display_errors

yeah sorry i have it set for 1 i just wanted to see what a 15 would do there but it still not showing anything and there is nothing in the data error logs

ok i made an error down the page so it would trick the page into making the error report and it came up with this

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in C:\apache2triad\htdocs\trys1.php on line 305

hiya anyone

 

I have read through a couple of the threads with people having the same problems as me with php code, I have tried all of the solutions but there are still problems with it, can anyone see what i'm doing wrong?

 

:::::::::::::::PROBLEM::::::::::::::::::::::

The problem is with the 'if statement'  its saying Parse Error: Syntax Error BOOLEAN_OR (something like that)

 

 

:::::::::::::::::CODE::::::::::::::::::::::::

 

<?php
include("connect.php");
if(isset($_POST["posted"]))
{
$name = $_POST["name"];
$message = $_POST["message"];
$time = time();
$ip = $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"];
$check_name_length = strlen($name); 
$check_message_length = strlen($message); 
if($check_name_length >= 30); || if($check_message_length >= 250);
{ 
echo "Please fill in the textboxes properly."; 
} 
else { 
mysql_query("INSERT INTO comment( id, ip, name, time, message) VALUES ("NULL","$ip", "$name", "$time", "$message")") or die ("Failed to add comment"); 
} 
}
?> 

 

I'd be really happy if sum1 cud help

This line has invalid syntax:

if($check_name_length >= 30); || if($check_message_length >= 250);

 

It should be:

if($check_name_length >= 30 || $check_message_length >= 250)
