Does anyone know what the error
Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /usr/wwws/users/faog/staffpages/mediadb_dist_fns.php on line 215
means? The line referred to is the last line in the file. Here is the last few lines in the file.
Code: Select all
function dist_order_complete($form_vars)
{
$cdate = date("Y-m-d H:i:s", strtotime("now"));
$query = "UPDATE orders SET completed = '".$cdate."' WHERE rid = '".$form_varsї'mitem']."'";
$result = query_db($query, "2");
}
?>

probably you've forgotten to close a { }-block somewhere.
e.g.
Code: Select all
<?php
function doSomething($count)
{
while($count--)
{
echo $count, '<br/>';
}
if($cond1)
{
doSomething(10);
}
?>produces such an error and the indents show that the closing } of the while-block is missing.
