Hi.
I am new to PHP. I found a tutorial that said to copy and paste the code into a .php document and open it in my browser:
<?php
echo $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
?>
I'm pretty sure PHP is enabled on my computer. I've tested code such as:
<?php
//Function arguments
function writeMyName2($fname)
{
echo $fname . " Refsnes.<br />";
}
echo "My name is ";
writeMyName2("Kai Jim");
echo "My name is ";
writeMyName2("Hege");
echo "My name is ";
writeMyName2("Stale");
?>
which works fine.
The error I get when I try
<?php
echo $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
?>
is
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /Library/WebServer/Documents/test.php on line 106
I tried Googling "T_VARIABLE" and haven't found any useful solutions. Any ideas? Thanks!
