My platform:
PC behind a Router with firwall (corresponding ports open)
XP Pro (with Service Pack 2)
Apache 2.0.52 (by installer)
Php 5.0.3 (manually installed)
MySQL 4.1.9 (by installer)
Xoops 2.0.9.2
----- My suspecision:--------------
I open 'mainfile.dist.php' with an HTML/Php editor, AceHTML, which automatically highlights keywords and matches brackets and so on given that if the Php syntax is correct.
The line that contains '\\\\', is seen by AceHTML as not syntatically correct since the highlighting stops right before the first '\\\\':
if ( DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR != '/' ) {
// IIS6 may double the \ chars
$xoopsScriptPath = str_replace( strpos( $xoopsScriptPath, '\\\\', 2 ) ? '\\\\' : DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, '/', $xoopsScriptPath);
}
Does IE 6 like its syntax?
No. IE 6 gives me a blank page when it loads mainfile.dist.php.
Doesn't that bother anyone? It does me because the popular and infamous 'got blank page' striks me right before INSTALLATION PROCESS creates xooops_avatar, xoops_....etc . Before that, my valuables are all set and saved correctly in mainfile.php. (cache...are all writable)
Thanks for any help that you can provide.
