I am trying to use php in my website and it works with wordpress but shows a White Screen of Death (or error 500 in some cases) if I try to use PHP anywhere else in the site (e.g. regular static pages)
All pages are .php
There are NO errors with the scripts, no script works
i am sick of having to use Javascript to achieve 1/10 of what php can do.
The link below is a php script and contains no HTML it is a pure php file:

below is the source of the above file
<?php
// include our wordpress functions
// change relative path to find your WP dir
define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);
require('./wp-config.php');
$wp->init();
$wp->parse_request();
$wp->query_posts();
$wp->register_globals();
$posts = get_posts(array(
'numberposts' => 5,
'offset' => 0,
'orderby' => 'post_date',
'order' => 'DESC',
'post_type' => 'post',
'post_status' => 'publish'
));
$json = array();
$json['err'] = false;
if ($posts) {
foreach ($posts as $post) {
$ray = array();
the_post();
$ray['id'] = $post->ID;
$ray['date'] = $post->post_date;
$ray['timestamp'] = strtotime($post->post_date);
$ago = days_ago($ray['date'], date('n/j/Y g:i a'));
$ray['ago'] = ($ago == "") ? false : $ago;
$ray['contents'] = shorten_string(strip_tags($post->post_content), 40);
$ray['link'] = $post->guid;
$ray['title'] = $post->post_title;
$ray['link'] = '<a href="'.$post->guid.'">'.$post->post_title.'</a>';
// New if <= 5 days ago
$ray['isNew'] = date('U') - $ray['timestamp'] <= 60 * 60 * 24 * 5;
$json['posts'][] = $ray;
}} header('Content-type: application/json;');
echo json_encode($json);
?>
