The product view page is blank on some products within my Magento store. I have the following error in the log:

[05-Oct-2015 21:18:34 UTC] PHP Fatal error: `Call to a member function productAttribute() on a non-object in /home/mysite/public_html/app/design/frontend/mytheme/default/template/catalog/product/view.phtml on line 69`

The piece of code to which this refers is as follows:

<?php echo $_helper->productAttribute($_product, $_product->getName(), 'name') ?>

Can anyone please assist with this issue?

All products on the site are imported via database. As far as I can see the only difference with the products that appear blank is that there's no 'short description' content. I've added content to the short description as a test but that didn't seem to fix the issue. Short description is identified as a required field.

May be helper class is not called here.

So you need to call helper class .please add below code before your code 

<?php $_helper = Mage::helper('catalog/output'); ?>
