Hi can someone look at the codes in the attached file & tell me what's wrong with line #170

I'm getting an error there stating:

The page is locate on my site at:
http://asiascott.com/guestbook/sign.php

After a small analysis, I think I found the problem. There is a missing } at the end... Just add one before
include ("footer.php");

Tell me if it works.

Also, you can create a file that will use show_source() and show you syntax error :

<?
show_source("file.php3");
?>

It' s there on line 196

Line 196 doesn't exist. But I aligned all the { and } together and there was a missing }. Just add one to try and you'll see if it works...

You can also just save the file as "file.phps" and it'll do the same thing. 🙂

Of course. You also could use a variable in the query string...

<?
show_source($_REQUEST["filename"]);
?>

Ok I add it to the end just before the footer.

This is how it looks:

<?php

}

} include ("footer.php");

Now the page comes up but the form is not showing when I add that extra }

any other suggestion?

And how do I use that other file you're telling to make?

suntra

Simply call it with a query string...

http://server.com/directory/file.php3?filename=the_file_you_want_to_see

Where file.php3 is the file containing the code.
