Re: parse error AFTER end of included file??

Jaxon, do you have a line of white space after your closing tag? Anyway, this looks fishy to me: if (!isset($page_id)) { $sql="select page_id from table where fieldname = $value"; $link_id = mysql_connect($host, $usr, $pass) or die (mysql_error()); mysql_select_db($database, $link_id); //select database catalog $result = mysql_query ($sql, $link_id) or die (mysql_error()); //return result set to php if (!$result) echo "wait - no result set!"; $page_id = mysql_result($result, 0, fieldname); // Where is the closing } for if (!isset($page_id)) { ? // added it below } I think you'd benefit from using braces more often too, so your style is consistent..... so changing if (!$result) echo "wait - no result set!"; to if (!$result) { echo "wait - no result set!"; } might mean that you're able to spot things like this more easily.
