[Resolved] T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING

I am using the following code.

<?php
session_start();

if (!$_SESSION['email_address']) 

   {
	echo "<b>You do not have the appropriate permissions to post new class notes.</b><br><br><br>";
   }


if (!$first_name)

   {
	echo "Please login below!<br>";
	include 'tlogin.php';
   }

if(!$username)

 {
	echo "Please Login below!<br>";
	include "tlogin.php';
 }

?>

<html>
<head><title>Add Notes</title></head>
<body>
<form name=form2 method=post action=postn.php>
  <table width=100% border=0 cellpadding=4 cellspacing=0>
    <tr>
      <td width=24% align=left valign=top>Username:</td><?php echo $_SESSION['username']; ?>
      <tr>
      <td align=left valign=top>Date notes given:</td>
      <td><input name=date type=text id=date></td>
    </tr>  

    <tr>
      <td align=left valign=top>Class Notes where:</td>
      <td><textarea name=info id=info></textarea></td>    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td align=left valign=top>&nbsp;</td>
      <td><input type=submit name=Submit value=Post the Notes></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</form>
</body>
</html>

when I run it i get the error message

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/mooecow/public_html/scn/postnotes.php on line 33

So what is wrong. And this is all before I submit.

Here, try this...


<?php
session_start();

if(empty($_SESSION['email_address']) || !isset($_SESSION['email_address']))
{
  echo "<b>You do not have the appropriate permissions to post new class notes.</b><br><br><br>";
}
if(empty($first_name) || !isset($first_name))
{
  echo "Please login below!<br>";
  include "tlogin.php";
}
if(empty($username) || !isset($username))
{
  echo "Please Login below!<br>";
  include "tlogin.php";
}
?>

<html>
<head><title>Add Notes</title></head>
<body>
<form name="form2" method="post" action="postn.php">
  <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0">
    <tr>
      <td width="24%" align="left" valign="top">Username: <?php echo $_SESSION['username']; ?></td>
      <tr>
      <td align="left" valign="top">Date notes given:</td>
      <td><input name="date" type="text" id="date"></td>
    </tr>  

    <tr>
      <td align="left" valign="top">Class Notes where:</td>
      <td><textarea name="info" id="info"></textarea></td>    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td align="left" valign="top">&nbsp;</td>
      <td><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Post the Notes"></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Maybe that will work..

EDIT: OOps, thats the right code (old post was old code..lol)

Ok so i have the following code but its not working

<?php
session_start();

if(empty($_SESSION['email_address']) || !isset($_SESSION['email_address']))
{
  echo "<b>You do not have the appropriate permissions to post new class notes.</b><br><br><br>";
}
if(empty($first_name) || !isset($first_name))
{
  echo "Please login below!<br>";
  include "tlogin.php";
}
if(empty($username) || !isset($username))
{
  echo "Please login below!<br>";
  include "tlogin.php";
}

?>

<html>
<head><title>Add Notes</title></head>
<body>
<form name="form2" method="post" action="postn.php">
  <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0">
    <tr>
      <td align="left" valign="top">Username:</td><? ". $_SESSION['username'] ."; ?>
      <td><input name="username" type="text" id="username"></td>
    </tr>  

      <tr>
      <td align="left" valign="top">Date notes given:</td>
      <td><input name="date" type="text" id="date"></td>
    </tr>  

    <tr>
      <td align="left" valign="top">Class Notes where:</td>
      <td><textarea name="notes" cols=25 rows=10 id="notes"></textarea></td>    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td align="left" valign="top">&nbsp;</td>
      <td><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Post the Notes"></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</form>
</body>
</html>

so it works and all until it gets to the username check and it posts the login again.
