User tags problem

[Terabyte]

This error in incredible!

Trying to output a link in a user tag I created and I get blank screen if I use all 4 variables (strings) in the link.
If only 3 variables are present than it is no problem - doesn't matter which three variables (string). But when all 4 are present I get just blank screen.

Code: Select all

echo "<a href=\"http://$lankurl\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"$lanktitle\">$lankname</a>  - $lankdec <br />";

This is only a problem in 1.4.1. Previous version were ok and the user tag worked fine!

Is it a problem in Smarty or???

[viebig]

well, this should work the code is correct.

Code: Select all

echo '<a href="http://'.$lankurl.'" target="_blank" title="'.$lanktitle.'">'.$lankname.'</a>  - '.$lankdec.' <br />';

Try turning error_reporting on, try using {debug}

I get this when debug is on:

Code: Select all

Notice: Undefined index: image in *:\******\******\wwwroot\tmp\templates_c\Printing^%%CC^CC3^CC3377B7%%module_db_tpl%3APrinting%3Blinktemplate.php on line 21

Although I don't think this is the problem, since this error message is there also when I get an outpu with 3 variables ...

Seems like a stupid error. Been sitting and trying sveeral hours and stil I have no clu what the problem is. The code in the user tag has been used in a regular php-file outside the CMS and is working great, and have also been working great before 1.4.1

[viebig]

that´s odd. I´ll try to reproduce it

[Terabyte]

Note that the strings are coded in latin in database and before I put them in the link-code I use utf8_encode on the strings.

[Terabyte]

Seems like the strings are too long! If I shorten the string to half it shows.

Why? Any idea? Is there any limitation on the strings in the user tags?

[Terabyte]

Checked with other strings and there seems to be a limitation of the length of the strings? This limitation seems only to be present in the output above, an output of a link.

Is it possible? Somebody know why?

[Terabyte]

I've tried to view at this from different angles, but is seems to be a huge problem, not beeing able to output a link.

The limitations in string size is really very strange.

[viebig]

I tested the code, works fine for me. If try reproduce it in a external php file, If it not work, contact yout host.

Thanks you trying to help.

As I said before, it works just fine outside the CMS. That was the first thing to try. 

My host is myself

-----

When you tested it, how long strings did you put in? It is all about the length of the strings as I noticed. When the strings are long, then is is not giving an output. When they are short then it is no problem.

[viebig]

send me an exact string values that causes the problem. So, we can use the same code to debug it. Also, tell me about your server, or wamp instalation.

[Terabyte]

Really nobody using user tags and see a problem. I have installed it on another system and experience the same problem.

[Terabyte]

Well this problem is too big for me. Now and a lot of "USer Tags" I just get blank pages, escpecially when a lot of output of text has to be presented.

If anybody have seen that, please say something. I'm going really crazy here.

Debug - no errors just blank page.

Debug - no errors just blank page.

This resembles a PHP memory_limit or max_execution_time problem. Check your apache error_log, hopefully that gives more info (or raise PHP's error_reporting_level to show the errors in the browser).

Tried this code in 1.4.1:

Code: Select all

$lankurl = "lankurl";
$lanktitle = "lanktitle";
$lankname = "lankname";

echo "<a href=\"http://$lankurl\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"$lanktitle\">$lankname</a>  - $lankdec <br />";

and it works as expected, this is the output:

Code: Select all

<a href="http://lankurl" target="_blank" title="lanktitle">lankname</a>  -  <br />
