Hi, I'm wondering why it doesn't show PHP errors. It's rather frustrating trying to figure out what's wrong when you don't know what the problem is. And wow, that last sentence was redundant. Is there a way to enable the showing of error messages?

There is a code you can put at the top of your php page for it to show the errors. I don't remember what it is, but you can just search google and you should be able to find it. Or maybe some of the other members know it...

here is a really cool guide to php error handling. including just displaying errors, logging them, and specific guides for drupal and wordpress implementations.
