When PHP finds this page, it doesn't do anything. It shows a blank page. This really had me dumb founded, as I tried everything. I even threw in random text to generate errors, but PHP didn't catch this at all. Once I found this bracket and fixed it, everything worked again. Very odd. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20945&edit=1
