Here's the digg article to a small article I wrote on a bug in PHP 5 I call PBSOD (PHP Blank Screen Of Death). Give it a read and tell me what you think.

umm... I have encountered this situation numerous time before. This is just a syntax error problem. your error_display is probably turned off (by default?)

just miss a semicolon in the end of a statement.

Yeah, its true- Ive had the same problem before and it was only because the error reporting was restricted to critical errors or something. In phpBB this happened a lot because they turn off error reporting.

No no, it has nothing to do with display errors or error_reporting. Error_reporting is set to E_ALL, and display_errors is on. It is an actual bug in PHP
