  Is your server configured to display errors? Try adding this at the top of
your script:

It won't catch syntax errors, but it should help. Also, try adding this to
the top of your script:

echo 'test';

If you still get a blank page, then it's probably not a problem with your
actual script. Maybe your configuration.

 Hi,
 
 I've been trying to get a small DB up and working with PhP. It's a
 library, and so far, I can't get past the stage of displaying a page. I
 try the 'hello world' example, and it displays. I then populate a DB
 and can access it via psql ..
 
 cdi= SELECT * FROM stock ;
 -[ RECORD 1 ]-+---
 stock_ids | 1
 isbn_no | 10101010
 code_livre | 23455
 titre | toto goes to Hollywood
 editeur | editions toto
 collection | collection toto
 auteur_nom | smith
 auteur_prenom | john
 matiere | ang
 media_type | li
 -[ RECORD 2 ]-+---
 stock_ids | 2
 isbn_no | 10536278
 code_livre | 24874
 titre | toto comes back from Hollywood
 editeur | editions baba
 collection | collection toto
 auteur_nom | martin
 auteur_prenom | peter
 matiere | fre
 media_type | dvd
 
 OK, I then write the following script 
 
 pg_connect (dbname=cdi user=cdi password=toto) or die (Couldn't
 Connect: .pg
 _last_error());
 $query=SELECT * FROM stock;
 $query=pg_query($query);
 // start the output
 while($row=pg_fetch_array($query,NULL,PGSQL_ASSOC)) {
 echo Title: .$row['isbn_no'].
 ;
 echo blah .$row['code_livre'].
 ;
 }
 ?
 
 (sorry not to put that in italics or whatever...)
 
 ... and put it in the document root of my webserver, under
 php_experimental.
 
 I get a blank page. The apache weblogs look like ...
 
 192.168.0.254 - - [07/Nov/2006:10:37:30 +0100] GET
 /php_experimental/base.php HTTP/1.1 200 - - Mozilla/4.0 (compatible;
 MSIE 6.0;

 There's something obvious that I'm missing. Any ideas ..?
 
 Thanks.

 Simple, isbn_no and code_livre need to be defined in your code.
 Otherwise PHP don't know what your looking for.
 
 There is PLENTY of docs online to show you how to display items in a DB.
 Hello World is basic, too basic to use as an example and is a poor one to
 use. If your nerw you have to go a bit more into it than Hello World code.
 (which in my opinion gets you know-where) been there done that.
 
 Google how to display items in a DB in PHP and shoot you get some handy
 things.
 
 I just feel this question is not required here when google has all the
 answers like this.

Alright, now try commenting out all the script except for the ini_set and
echo 'test' at the top. There still might be a syntax error in the code.

Essentially, you want to do whatever you can to get the page to display a
simple message. Then, work backwards until you get the error/blank page.

If you can't get a message to display, try copying the script from hello.php
to right into your new script. That should give you enough to troubleshoot.

X-No-Archive:
  
Curious.  I put this in a file... 
   
  ?php
  echo 'pHello World/p'
  ?

  Bingo.  
   
  I then take the *same* file, I don't rename it, I just open it in vi.  I copy 
a single occurrence of 'pg_connect' etc... 
   
  And the 'hello world' disappears.
