Blank screen is generally an error of some sorts. Check your server<br>
logs. A common cause is output being sent before headers. That can be<br>
caused by echoing something out before the headers are sent, or having a<br>
closing ?> at the end of a PHP file and something after it, even a blank<br>
line.<br>
