could someone try and help me sort this out, just really annoying me

the error is
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\shopbots\poll1\vote.php on line 72

points to this line, think it has something to do with the target

Code: Select all

echo "<font face="Verdana" size="1"><a href="".$PHP_SELF."?results=1" target="http://localhost/shopbots/admin/poll_index.php">View results</a></font>";

Thanks for that, that's sorted that line out.

could you check if this is correct please

Code: Select all

<form method="post" action="<?=$PHP_SELF?>" target="http://localhost/shopbots/admin/poll_index.php">

can i ask what you mean by short tags on

how do i put them on. is there a setting or something, sorry im fairly new to all this.


Another quick question do these two php_auth user and php_pw - are they set anywhere, because im stuggling to get http authentication to work, the window comes up and i type in user and open but nothing happens just bounces back. Any ideas why?





$PHP_AUTH_USER != 'user' ) || ( $PHP_AUTH_PW != 'open' ) ) {

short tags:
<? code
<?= echo'd stuff

I don't know how the authentication user/password is set.. but I'd bet it's stored in $_SERVER.

Mike needs to learn how to make his own topic instead of jacking someone else's..

Just a hint.

1. Try finding a editor that supports syntax highlighting. There are several threads on this forum about editors, so do a serach.
2. Use the preview, before posting PHP code in your post.

This because the syntax highlighting will reveal alot of issues in code, that is not allways visible as plain text. Just take a look at the issues above within PHP tags...
