    Just performed the update and now my freeform pages either display blank or broken. I’m 99,9 % sure they were running okay before the update.

    Honestly, I’m not very enthusiastic to reinstall the 1.6.5 backup - could there be some side effect on Freeform with the security update or should I look for something completely different?

    Update: It seems its not Freeform itself - the typography parser seems to be changed ... the forms are shoen if I switch the field containing the form from XHTML or BR or none ... worked with XHTML before when writing the form code on one line ... and gave a more consisted display.

    Markus,

    Can you force displaying error as per this page, to see if you are getting any php errors?

    Thanks,

    Hi Greg,

    no errors are showing up at all. Its only the output missing - if enabled, SQL queries and template debugging info are displayed, only the page content itself isn’t rendered completely on one page (page source is blank) and partly missing on another (header, nav and some content display fine, but the div containing the form is incomplete and everything from there is missing). And in both situations, switching the formating of the field containing the form from XHTML to BR resolves the problem.

    Markus can you post the template for one of these that’s demonstrating the problem, as well as the field content?  You say that the field contains the form?
