[SOLVED] PHP database code issue

CloudedVision · #41 Mar 25th, 2008, 23:25

when the page blank, look at the source. anything there?

acrikey · #42 Mar 25th, 2008, 23:40

No but I think there is something wrong with the code, as the code is red after the last ?>
I'll upload code

is it saved as a .php file?

acrikey · #45 Mar 25th, 2008, 23:42

CloudedVision · #46 Mar 25th, 2008, 23:46

is this on your local machine or a host? Does your host support PHP?

acrikey · #47 Mar 25th, 2008, 23:46

http://www.lightex.co.uk/fieldworks/accountdetails.php

Alert Box UN: test

acrikey · #48 Mar 25th, 2008, 23:46

host and yes they can support php5

CloudedVision · #49 Mar 26th, 2008, 00:00

PHP: Select all


<?php
ob_start()
$host="localhost"; // Host name
$username="fieldworks"; // Mysql username

right there. Get rid of that ob_start(). You don't need it and that most likely is whats causing the problems.

acrikey · #50 Mar 26th, 2008, 11:11

Still blank and the ob is removed

CloudedVision · #51 Mar 26th, 2008, 14:14

just as a test, insert this somewhere in your PHP code:

PHP: Select all


nonexistant("asdfasd);

See if that returns any sort of error.

acrikey · #52 Mar 26th, 2008, 14:23

Still blank, nothing returned

CloudedVision · #53 Mar 26th, 2008, 14:26

are any other PHP pages working?

acrikey · #54 Mar 26th, 2008, 14:36

none with this code but others yes

CloudedVision · #55 Mar 26th, 2008, 14:38

hmmmm

contact your host. tell them nothing is displaying, including errors.

acrikey · #56 Mar 26th, 2008, 14:43

But surely it must be the code because, it displays until I put the db code in the script

CloudedVision · #57 Mar 26th, 2008, 14:46

im pretty sure it is the code also, but the code must have a fatal error if its not displaying anything, and its not showing the fatal error. so contact your host about its PHP error settings.

acrikey · #58 Mar 26th, 2008, 14:49

hang on I'll just run a quick test, bare with me
