Post Reply? Hi, I have the next php script and, this always work very well (loading time before 1 second) but about two or three days to now, I get the 500 Internal Server Error or this simple function spend more than 20 seconds to load. My dreamhost server is “Burke”, I use mysqli to connect to the database. In error.log I get: Premature end of script headers: menu.php… Who can I put this working? Move to another webhost? Please help me!!! The php script is: <?php header(”Content-Type: text/xml”); ini_set(’display_errors’,'On’); ini_set(’display_startup_errors’,'On’); error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE); // db properties to mysqli class define (”DB_SERVER”, ‘mysql.domain.com’); define (”DB_NAME”, ‘db_name’); define (”DB_USER”, ‘db_user’); define (”DB_PASSWORD”, ‘db_pass’); include_once ‘library/mysql.php’; // simple mysqli class function getRows ($sql){ $data = false; $myDB = new MySQL(); $myDB->Query($sql); if ($myDB->TotalRows() > 0) { while( $row = $myDB->FetchArray() ) { $data[] = $row; } } $myDB->Close(); return $data; } function mostraMenuXML($pid=0, $isMulti=false) { if ( $isMulti ) $menu = getRows(”SELECT id, titulo FROM artigos WHERE menuid = $pid ORDER BY ordem, data”); else $menu = getRows(”SELECT id, nome, publicado, tipo FROM menu WHERE parentid = $pid ORDER BY ordem”); if ( !$menu ) return “”; if ($pid==0 ) $xml = “n<item name=”principal”>n”; else $xml = “”; if ( $isMulti ) { foreach ($menu as $item) { $xml .= “n<item “; $xml .= “name=”". stripslashes(html_entity_decode($item['titulo'], ENT_COMPAT, “UTF-8″)) .”" action=”openPage” m=”".$pid.”" id=”".$item['id'].”">”; $xml .= “</item>n”; } } else { foreach ($menu as $item){ $xml .= “n<item “; switch ( $item['tipo'] ) { case “GALLERY”: $accao = “”; $isMulti = true; break; case “MAIL”: $accao = “openMail”; break; case “NEWS”: $accao = “openNews”; break; default: $accao = “openPage”; } $xml .= “name=”". $item['nome'] .”" action=”$accao” m=”".$item['id'].”" >”; if ( $item['id'] != $pid ) $xml .= mostraMenuXML($item['id'], $isMulti); $xml .= “</item>n”; } } if ($pid==0 ) $xml .= “</item>n”; return $xml; } echo mostraMenuXML(); ?>
