[Resolved] Unexpected $ on line...

[n00854180t]

I get this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home3/apoji/public_html/rcoldlogin.php on line 41

The very last line is line 41.

Here is my code:

<link href="rcoldcss.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

<?php

$txtUser = $_POST['txtFName']; 
$txtPass = md5($_POST['txtPass']);
$sql = "SELECT * FROM rcold_users WHERE
	 uFirstName='$txtUser' AND
	 uPass='$txtPass)';";

include("dbconn.php");


$id = $myrow["id"];
$sec = $myrow["uPass"];

$result = mysql_query($sql, $db) or die(mysql_error());
$rows = mysql_num_rows($result);


if ($submit && $rows>0 && $myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {

echo "User Control Panel";
echo "<br><br>";
echo '<a href="mnudisplay.php?' .$id.'&sec=' .$sec. '&menuopt=viewacc">View Account Info</a>';
echo '<a href="mnudisplay.php?' .$id.'&sec=' .$sec. '&menuopt=editacc">Edit Account Info</a>';
echo '<a href="mnudisplay.php?' .$id.'&sec=' .$sec. '&menuopt=techimgs">View Technical Specifications</a>';

/*
  */
mysql_close($db) or die(mysql_error());


?>

<form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF ?>">
Login: <br><input class="text" type="text" name="txtUser"><br>
Password: <br><input class="text" type="password" name="txtPass"><br>
<input class="submit" type="Submit" name="submit" value="Login">
</form>
<a href="rcoldreg.php">Register</a> <a href="admin.php">Admin</a>

The problem is that you never closed the {} block that starts on this line:

if ($submit && $rows>0 && $myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { 

The "$" is the secret code for End Of File (it wasn't expecting End Of File, it was expecting a "}").

The $ is just programmer shorthand. You'll pick up the jargon as you go.

Whoops, figured it was something like that, thanks for pointing it out for me. Zend Studio makes me lazy in making sure my brackets are closed lol.

Although I don't get an error now, it won't ever log me in (won't show the code within the if statment). Any reason why this would be as I am stumped! Thanks!

n00854180t first find php.ini file and edit Error handling and logging:
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
to
error_reporting = E_ALL
i hope you have a test server where u can do that and you will get all errors in your code
Second:

$txtUser = $_POST['txtFName'];

i dont know where from u get variable $_POST['txtFName'], from form u have $_POST['txtUser']
Third:

$sql = "SELECT * FROM rcold_users WHERE uFirstName='$txtUser' AND uPass='$txtPass)';";
/* shuld be: */
$sql = "SELECT * FROM rcold_users WHERE uFirstName='$txtUser' AND uPass='$txtPass'";
