Opera shows blank screen....

Anon

Hi -

first time in my life a tried to use PHP last night with a simple formmailer.. works fine with IE and Netscape, but Opera 6 only shows a completely blank screen 🙁

Are there any common mistakes I could have made ? I don't want to post the whole script right now, since it is pretty long - if anyone is willing to have a look at it, i will of course post/send it !

Thanks,
dietrich

Double check your HTML output. I don't think that Opera is as forgiving as Netscape let alone IE. IE lets you get away with really bad HTML and Netscape also allows you some leeway, but I don't think that Opera does.

One easy way is to use one of the many html validators that you can find on the web. Either upload a saved hmtl file or point them at your URL.

Hallo! You can try to install the last version of Opera for windows. (linux version haven't this feature)
Then, you load your document --> rigth mouse button --> Frame --> Validate HTML.

It's simple ... it uses the W3C validator.
Hope this helps.
