Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{'

Dhaling2011

Something wrong with bracket in this code?
Anyone see it? I am going crazy!

<?php
while (!isset($_GET['link'])){
$link="main";
}
?>

the only problem i see is that you are using a while(), sure you don't want if()

I tried if. but it gave me a different error. So then changed to while. but now it gives me a different error about my }. 🙁

that can't be all the code on the page, as it's fine.

Dhaling2011

no..thats not all the code. Thats just where the error line is. Here is my php my page.
This is in the <Head>. where the error is.


<?php
while*(!isset($_GET['link'])){
$link="main";
}

?>

In the main Table

<?php
*($link*==*"hours"){
include('hours.php');
}*elseif*($link*==*"location"){
include('location.php');
}*elseif*($link*==*"about"){
include('about.php');
}*elseif*($link*==*"members"){
include('members.php');}*
}*elseif*($link*==*"staff"){
include('staff.php');
}*elseif*($link*==*"songs"){
include('songs.php');
}*elseif*($link*==*"members"){
include('members.php');
elseif*($link*==*"faq"){
include('faq.php');
elseif*($link*==*"contact"){
include('contact.php');
elseif*($link*==*"fund"){
include('fund.php');
elseif*($link*==*"newsletter"){
include('newsletter.php');
}*else*{
include('main.php');
}
?>
