Hi all Can someone help? I am new to PHP and need some help, i have tried to build a members only section to my website but i am finding it very hard. I get this error when i go to the login page: Parse error: parse error in /home/.sites/112/site***/web/Members/Login.php on line 201 But the only thing on line 201 is: default: The parse error is starting to be a problem on line 201, but that may be caused by something you ommitted in an earlier line, maybe you did not close a quoted string, or maybe you did not end a line with a ;semicolon;.

If you get a very strange error message try to find the translation on www.zend.com rather than on www.php.net. Hint: with Google you can look for [ site:www.zend.com StrangeErrorWord ].

I don't understand? I get the feeling i will need more help even if someone solves this for me :o)

In deed. Well you got PHP working so that already shows you're computer literate. The best book to start with that i know of is the PHP Bible second edition, by Converse and Parker. It is an inve$tment though... On php.net is a simple tutorial with links: http://www.php.net/manual/en/tutorial.php. Also please (!) do read the first chapters of the online manual on www.php.net, this manual then proceeds with a lot of functions, have a quick look at them and dig a bit deeper in the functions for strings, arrays, date&time, and your database. I collected some specific links on www.hieris.info/over/php. I wrote it in Dutch and the layout is primitive but do try the links!! Then there was a usefull list of do's and don'ts on zend, let me look.... http://www.zend.com/zend/art/mistake.php about classic mistakes. Don't be intimidated by it though. PHP is very flex.
