help...this produces a blank page, even though i've made the templates...


<?
chdir("../forums");
require("global.php");
$cats = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM classified_cat WHERE parent = '0' ORDER BY displayorder, title");
while ($cat = $DB_site->fetch_array($cats)) {
eval("\$catbit .= \"".gettemplate("classifieds_indexbit_level1")."\";");
$subcats = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM classified_cat WHERE parent = '".$cat[id]."' ORDER BY displayorder, name");
while ($subcat = $DB_site->fetch_array($subcats)) {
eval("\$catbit .= \"".gettemplate("classifieds_indexbit_level2")."\";");
}
}
echo $catbit;
eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("classifieds_index")."\");");
?>

Best debug practise: (in non-visual languages)
1- Put a lot of echo "came here ..." lines in-line and see what part of your code is not parsed..

2- Put echo '$variable='.$variable; lines in your code to see what your variable values are when it runs..

It will help you so much to understand which line has a problem in your code.
