code not showing anything

[simflex]

hello team,

 

can you please look at this code snippet and tell me why it is showing the following data this way?

 

<?php
#  jeff Exp $
include("app.php");

$page->set("title", "Business & Commerical");

$what = $page->getvar("what");
$type = $page->getvar("type");

$dt = new xDataTable('width="500"');
$form = new Form();

if($what == "submit") $html->set("readonly", true);

$dt->header($_types{$type} . " Quote");

$form->get_contact_form(true);

 

When I run it, it shows like this:

 

set("title", "Business & Commerical"); $what = $page->getvar("what"); $type = $page->getvar("type"); $dt = new xDataTable('width="500"'); $form = new Form(); if($what == "submit") $html->set("readonly", true); $dt->header($_types{$type} . " Quote"); $form->get_contact_form(true); switch ($type) { case "comp": $dt->left("Business Type:"); $dt->cell($html->select("business_type", $_business_type, 1, "", $page->getvar("business_type"), "(select)")); $dt->left("Federal Tax ID:"); $dt->cell($html->textfield("tax_id", $page->getvar("tax_id"), 12)); $dt->left("If Individual, Owner SSN#:"); $dt->cell($html->textfield("ssn", $page->getvar("ssn"), 12)); $dt->cell("Spouse SSN#:"); $dt->cell($html->textfield("spouse_ssn", $page->getvar("spouse_ssn"), 12));

 

just a small sample.

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks alot in advance

app.php doesn't happen to start with <? instead of <?php does it?

[simflex]

hi Shawn,

 

Yes, it does:

<?php

 

#===============================================================================

...

The only thing I can think of is that 1. your file doesn't end in .php or 2. that PHP hasn't been installed properly.  Does this work?

 

<?php
// test.php
phpinfo();
?>

How are you invoking the script?

Shawn, yes this ->How are you invoking the script?

 

works.

 

Ken, I fire up a browser and type localhost/filename.php

I'm betting the problem is in the file app.php. Try commenting out that include. What is in that file?

[simflex]

just a bunch of classes and some additional include files

 

<?php


#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# Include all relevant files.

include_once("config.php");
include_once("tools.php");
include_once("logtools.php");
include_once("htmltools.php");
include_once("nettools.php");

#===============================================================================
#
# Application class
#
# An object used to represent the application itself, and provide functionality
# specific to the application.
#
#===============================================================================

class Application extends Object
{
  #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  #
  # Constructor.
  #
  # Argument : none.
  # Returns :  nothing.
  #
  #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  function Application() { }

} # class Application.

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

This is not all of it, just snip

Seems suspicious that the code output starts with set() that follows -> which would normally close an HTML comment

Exactly what I was thinking. Look at the html source and I'll bet you find a missing > somewhere, or some such typo causing your problem.
