I've noticed I got this one for a bit - if you're getting unnatural Parse Errors, like Unexpected T_VARIABLE or T_STRING, or something along those lines, then it's probably an error involving quotation marks, like in a variable. Often this would happen when trying to stick HTML inside of a variable, you'd just forget things, then you'd put, say an anchor tag inside of a variable. The quotes inside your HTML tag, would automatically close the variable, then you'd get Parse errors coming out your ears, even if the code was tested and worked perfectly somewhere else. This happened a lot to me ;) If you're getting unnatural Parse Errors when you're definately sure your code inside of a variable, printf statement, or whatever, try using single quotes, or leave quotes altogether out of your HTML tags. <img src=images/image.gif alt=Blah> seems to work just fine on most browsers. It's not exactly good coding practice, but then again, not much is. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/tokens.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+40666 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+40666&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+40666&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
