Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE, expecting T_STRING in C:\xampplite\htdocs\install\index.php on line 210

the line 210 is this :

\$config['dbtype'] = '{$mysql}';
\$config['hostname'] = '{$mysql_host}';
\$config['username'] = '{$mysql_user}';
\$config['password'] = '{$mysql_pass}';
\$config['database'] = '{$mysql_db}';
\$config['table_prefix'] = '{$table_prefix}';

how will fix this error ??
