Debugging blank PHP page.

How can I debug a blank PHP page? I've turned on all logging in my
php.ini, bu the page just turns blank.

Thanks,

Do you have display_errors set to on, also? If so, and you have errors,
you should see them in your browser.

Did you try looking at the page source to see what you have?

does your "blank page" actually generate an error to be reported,
logged, or displayed?

code snippet would be nice.

Your question doesn't make sense. Are you saying "my PHP page sends
nothing to the browser?" Is there anything in the web server error log?
What happens if you run the script from a command line?

Assuming all the above, you are just left with the Mk 1 brain. Look for
sections where the script outputs code. Add some outputs to ensure the
script is at least doing something.

Most of the times when you get absolutely nothing, it's something really
simple IME.

Well if it is blank, the first bug is the script is probably working
but not outputting anything that the browser can display.

Have you tried to do "View source" to see if there is anything at all?

Plug in some dummy text to put put, and see if it shows up as
expected, if not, go earlier into your code and try again. If not,
maybe you have a error in your web/php installation. Or maybe you
are calling up the wrong page entirely!
