Dear All

I currently trying to get a view helper to work and as soon as i include a custom view helper in a view using <?= $this- >MyNewViewHelper ?> the resulting rendered view is empty/blank. I would really appreciate if someone could shed some light on what i am doing wrong as I have tried to use v1.53, v1.6 RC1 and standard\branches\release-1.6. of the framework and I can t get any to work and no errors show up in the apache or php log.

with regards
Bram
