you're missing a closing bracket }

Parse error: parse error in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/my.onefusion.com/httpdocs/portal/test/login.php on line 59

I inserted the closing bracket but I still received the same error as before. argh!

I'd space out your code and look at it, line up brackets. It's hard to tell which if statements go with what since nothing is spaced out. By doing that, it'll be easier to spot your problem.

I ran your code through a beautifier, the total number of brackets is okay, but you've got two else statements with one if, that's not valid.

<?php
/// Establish the connection

$dbconnect = @mysql_connect("this", "that", "pooh");

if (!$dbconnect) {

echo("Unable to connect to the database server at this time." );
echo("Error connecting to the database: " . mysql_error() );

exit();

}

// Select the database to work with

$dbselect = @mysql_select_db("mb", $dbconnect);

if (!$dbselect) {

echo("Unable to locate the database at this time." );
echo("Error locating the database: " . mysql_error() );

exit();

}


/// Validate client login from database
// Form variables = "login", "password"

$result = mysql_query("SELECT client_username, client_password FROM client_info", $dbconnect);

while ($resultlist = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {

if ($resultlist["client_username"] == $login) {

    if ($resultlist["client_password"] == $password) {

        echo("blah blah blah" );
        echo("blah blah blah" );
        echo("blah blah blah" );
        echo("blah blah blah" );

    } else {

        echo("Your password is incorrect." );
        echo("Please try again." );

    } else {

        echo("Your login does not exist." );
        echo("Please try again." );

    }


}

}

?>

it probably should be:

while ($resultlist = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
    if ($resultlist["client_username"] == $login) {

    if ($resultlist["client_password"] == $password) {

        echo("blah blah blah" );
        echo("blah blah blah" );
        echo("blah blah blah" );
        echo("blah blah blah" );

    } else {

        echo("Your password is incorrect." );
        echo("Please try again." );

    } 

} else {

    echo("Your login does not exist." );
    echo("Please try again." );

}
