hello all, im trying to make an upload page. the upload page itself works very well but, I'm applying data validation now, and some problems causes...
the validation will validate the fields, if empty or incorrect data input, will show the form again with red color fields.
the error currently im getting is this:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in C:\wamp\www\upload-functions.php on line 82
I've signed below where is line 82.
I dont know why I get this error since everything seems to be clear and curly brakets are well.

Re: upload page with data validation fields
ok I got where was the error, I was using tag <? instead of <?php. I'd read somewhere before, that php sometimes cant handle this...
now, my problem is, the page comes with no error, but it does not work when I submit the data..
any suggestions?

Re: upload page with data validation fields
You might need to describe the problem further than 'it doesn't work'

Re: upload page with data validation fields
when I click on submit, it tries to connect to local host and then stays in the same page with noreaction like submit bottun never had been clicked.
