[RESOLVED] I need help with syntax error

TWillsti

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_LNUMBER in public_html/templates/default/layout.php on line 63

Hi, I could use alot of help with this one. I'm completely new to PHP. Anyways everything was working just fine until I tried to move a rotating banner and got the above error. Here is the area of the code that I moved (I moved it back, but no help)

<? echo iif($LOGGED_IN, "

<tr>

	<td colspan=3 height=35 align=\"center\">

<tr>

	<td>

		<table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=1 width=\"100%\"> 

<tr>

<table width="800" border=0> (this is line 63)

	<td background="templates/default/images/b_g.jpg" width="100%" align="center" valign="middle"><? echo $pagebanner648; ?></td>

</tr>

Any help would be great thanks

The problem is your commas, you forgot to backslash the ones in line 63

<? echo iif($LOGGED_IN, "

My son works in PHP so I tried that. It just moves the error to the next line.

Same thing ... you have to \ all of the quotes (I said commas but i meant quotes)

alfoxy

Actuall looking at it you are gonna have a few more probs ....

This prints out stuff if you are logged in ....

<? echo iif($LOGGED_IN, "
<tr>
<td colspan=3 height=35 align=\"center\"> etc..

but you havn't ended it any where. You will need a "); somewhere.

Also this wont work
<td background="templates/default/images/b_g.jpg" width="100%" align="center" valign="middle"><? echo $pagebanner648; ?></td>

You will need to change it to this
<td background=[/B]"templates/default/images/b_g.jpg[/B]" width=[/B]"100%[/B]" align=[/B]"center[/B]" valign=[/B]"middle[/B]">".$pagebanner648."</td>

Yes I added the \ in front of all of quotes and it still moves the error to the next line.

I didn't mean to be short, sorry for that.

Thank you for all the help and suggestions. please keep them coming.

I will have to wait for my son to do all of this stuff. how all this started was I wanted to move that table with a banner rortator (this is Aurora GTP) so when I cut it out and pasted it to another spot on the page is when I ran into problems.
So I took everything (I hope) and pasted it back where I got it.

As far as breaking the quotes with \ I never changed any of that, and it worked great until I got anal about that banner.

Again Thanks for the help.

Please show us the latest version of the code you are using, wrapping it in the forum's [noparse]

...

[/noparse] bbcode tags to make it easier for us to read (plus the context-sensitive highlighting it provides may help us to see where the error is).

I got ahold of the supplier and he will reset the page for me. He also turned me onto Crimson Editor. Says it has a nice undo feature that as long as the file is open you can save and undo your changes. Sounds like a newbies dream.

Again Thank You All

Now I just need to figure out how to mark this thread resolved.

Also is it just me, cause I'm so frazzled that the login on this site doesn't work to well. I have to sign in 3 times to post.
