Description:
------------
This has been reported elsewhere but with insufficient detail for you to help.

I am not a programmer but use PostNuke .723 to run my website.  It runs on Apache/1.3.29 (Unix) PHP/4.3.6.  It runs with PHP safe_mode Off and PHP safe_mode_gid Off.

A module FormExpress has worked for ages - ever since the upgrade to 4.3.5 and now 4.3.6 it has stopped working and just delivers a blank screen.  This happens every time, and does not happen with any other module.

Reproduce code:
---------------
The code for the module can found at

http://sourceforge.net/projects/pn-formexpress/



Expected result:
----------------
The module display a form for input, information etc.

Actual result:
--------------
A blank HTML page with basic header and no <body> content

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves. 

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external 
resources such as databases, etc.

If possible, make the script source available online and provide
an URL to it here. Try avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

No feedback was provided. The bug is being suspended because
we assume that you are no longer experiencing the problem.
If this is not the case and you are able to provide the
information that was requested earlier, please do so and
change the status of the bug back to "Open". Thank you.

This bug is definitely recurring with FormExpress and PHP 4.3.6

I believe I have a workaround for this.
Obviously, you do this at your own risk, and you should ensure that you keep backups before making any changes.

In the FormExpress file pntables.php, go to the second-to-last line, which just contains ");" (line 142 in my file). It is immediately beneath a large comment.

Comment-out this line, and I found that everything works fine again. Tested using php-4.3.5-Win32.

Thanks to ndickson - this seems to be a fix.  Presume this was a programming error that ealrier PHPs let go and newer versions pick up on.

Not a bug in PHP, BOGUS.
 [2004-06-09 11:33 UTC] ren at renesurbek dot com 
Well my isp upgraded to 4.3.7 and now it works! I'm not sure why but it does... I took that  ;)  out of the pntables.php and of it went... What a relief!!
