Hi,

I've worked with PHP5 for a good while and yet it has one problem that
frustrates the hell out of me: when I have syntactic or punctuation errors
in a script I get nothing except a blank white page in the browser. No
message, nothing in the server logs--nothing at all. I've been programming
for 30 years so I know it's not unreasonable to expect some kind of
indication or message about WHERE the problem is occuring. I have to debug
like I used to in assembly by commenting out chunks until it runs.

I run PHP5 as a DSO on Apache 2 with virtual hosts on a Mandrake platform.

Thanks,

Harley
