Linux is always the best choice. :) (note: I was not able to reproduce this on _windows_ either!) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-09-01 21:42:32] perching_eagle at yahoo dot com i guess i have to give up, if it works on linux then i will eventually have to make the transition to linux. i did try your last suggestion and it didn't work, but i will try it a few more times and then if my problem remains unsolved, i will switch to linux earlier than i had planned. and you may close this thread. thanks for your help. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-30 09:46:17] [EMAIL PROTECTED] When you installed the snapshot, did you first shutdown whatever webserver you use and delete (!!) all old installed PHP related dlls/executables BEFORE you installed the snapshot version?? I can't reproduce this on Windows XP (yes, I have that..) nor on Linux (preferred OS). I suspect it's simply bad installation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-30 06:01:25] perching_eagle at yahoo dot com one more thing i went to google translate to check what language was being dumped on my screen, and it was only the "chinese to english" translator that was able to decipher it, the words were meaningless but i wonder why. i hope someone can get to the bottom of this, the only solution i have right now is to manually copy all the files i would have included with the include or require directives, into one file for each class definition. the include,require,require_once,include_once all worked for non-object oriented programs. whenever it encountered the $this-> operator in my code, especially in the constructor (just like the code in my first post), it dumps everything else after the $this-> operator on my screen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-30 02:17:15] perching_eagle at yahoo dot com not loading mbstrings didn't change anything, versions prior to 5.2.3 work well with no problem at all. i guess anyone that still uses a microsoft os like xp, can comfirm my complaint. well thanks jani for your help. if you have access to windows xp with php 5.2.3 installed on it, you may be able to figure out what the problem is. till then bye...... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-28 21:42:01] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Well, do you get readable error messages when you don't load mbstring? (this is getting quite boring..) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
