blank screen on parse errors after creating php.ini on linux

Hi there, I did recently activat php.ini on suse7.2 (copyed the php.ini-recommended inot the propper dir) to increase the time out. Now I did experiance a serious problem. Working on my code, I did produce an error. I did forget to include a ". The screen on my browser was blank after I refreshed. This went through my whole application. So I figured out that I do have a check for user_info on each of those site. And before the if statement the php code was parsed ok. I did remove the php.ini file. Then suddenly the error msg came up, I fixed the error and I was ok. Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /include/user.php on line 208 Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_userdata_2() in /index.php on line 29 So whats wrong with my php.ini? It does return a blank screen on parse erorrs. Thanx for any help on that, Andy
