Hi, I have just started trying to learn PHP.
Here is my code, but I can't seem to get it to work. I saved it as .php3 and tried to display it.
This is the error I get:
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in C:\Xitami\webpages\lessons\l2\week2.php3 on line 2
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in C:\Xitami\webpages\lessons\l2\week2.php3 on line 2
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Can you help me out and tell me why I'm getting an error. (Thank you ahead of time)
