Web Dev’s Diary #1

Dear Diary,

Today, I encountered this thing that my co-worker named as “WSD (or White Screen of Death)”. I normally get it because I’m on a strict environment. The very first time I got it, I was really, really, really REALLY scared. I thought I broke something. I know I did break something. It turned out, there was just an error that needs fixing that’s why it’s giving me a whole screen of pure white-ness :p. I know I sound like errors don’t scare me that much anymore. Well, time (and days filled with WSD) has taught me something.

Don’t panic. Panicking really won’t help. Believe me. Next, search for the small things you might have missed. 95% of my WSD encounters were caused by {[(;)]} –characters I learned to love and hate. If not, there’s always google.
