How do I get this script to print right on page?

lrng2program

I can't get the below script to print correctly on the web page. (I want it to show the most current 10 articles.) I'm getting:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '<' in /home/jmiller/public_html/articlesnew.php on line 98

I also need to add that it should only print the most recent 10 articles.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you very much!

$sql=SELECT ArticleType,__ArticleName, 1stParagraph 
__________FROM tbl_articles 
__________ORDER BY ArticleDate DESC
		include ('db_config.inc.php'); 

$result=mysql_query('$sql'); 
?> 
<html><head></head> 
<body> 
<?php 

while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result) ) 
{ 
echo $row['Article Type'];_______ 
} 
</body> 
</html>";


          <p class='body'>&nbsp;</p>
          </td>
      </tr>
    </table>
    </form>";
    return $html;
   }


   include('template.php');
?>

Is this code part of a bigger code? Perhaps you could attach a copy of the whole page?

There are a number of things wrong. To address your parse error: I am going to assume that line 98 is </body>. You can't just put HTML inside <?php tags. If you want to output HTML from within PHP, you need to use print or echo statements.

In the first line, you have no quotes around your SELECT statement. That might not cause an error ($sql most likely = 0), but it's wrong.

There seem to be some other errors, but I can't correctly diagnose them since you didn't include all relevant code. Since this looks like part of a bigger page, any other advice I give you will most likely be misguided.
