I'm getting this error when running my php script: Any help is appreciated.

Parse error: parse error, expecting `','' or `';'' in C:\xampp\htdocs\order-thankyou0.php on line 59

Here is my code:

On line 57...

Code: Select all

echo"
You have opened the echo statement using double quotes. This means that you will then be closing the echo statement every time the script encounters double quotes within the section you want to echo.

You need to change all the double quotes inside the echo statement to single quotes. Put more simply....

Change all double quotes between lines 58 and 81 to single quote marks.

That will fix your problem.

Example:

Code: Select all

echo "
 
<a href="test.html"> TEST LINK </a>
 
";
This code is wrong because the echo would end after href=

The code below would work....

Code: Select all

 
echo "
 
<a href='test.html'> TEST LINK </a>
 
";
 
Notice the use of single quotes within the echo.

Hope this helps.
