unexpected T_ELSE

Texteri

Hi I'm having a problem with this PHP

the error i get is: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ELSE in.....

Here is the code for the area concerned

else if ($carrier == "bellmobility") {
$formatted_number = $to."@txt.bellmobility.ca";
mail($formatted_number,$subject,$message,$headers);
}
&#8233;
else if ($carrier == "virgincanada") {
$formatted_number = $to."@vmobile.ca";
mail($formatted_number,$subject,$message,$headers);
}

else if ($carrier == "telus") {
$formatted_number = $to."@msg.telus.com";
mail($formatted_number,$subject,$message,$headers);
}

The problem is the
else if ($carrier == "virgincanada") {
line but obiviously it is something before it that is wrong..
the section before it is okay (bellmobility)

Any ideas why this is happening??
Thanks

Heh.. sometimes I love the broken little quarks vBulletin's bbcode parser has.

Notice the ' ' in the middle of your code (incidentally, right above the line # referenced in the error message)? That's vBulletin's attempt at HTML-encoding a Unicode character in your post.

This website suggests that your original post contained a: Unicode Character 'PARAGRAPH SEPARATOR' (U+2029).

Okay thank you I get it but how can I fix it?? Change my encoding type??

Just remove the hiccup bradgrafelman mentioned, perhaps? 😃 Ergo this:

else if ($carrier == "bellmobility") {
$formatted_number = $to."@txt.bellmobility.ca";
mail($formatted_number,$subject,$message,$headers);
}
else if ($carrier == "virgincanada") {
$formatted_number = $to."@vmobile.ca";
mail($formatted_number,$subject,$message,$headers);
}
else if ($carrier == "telus") {
$formatted_number = $to."@msg.telus.com";
mail($formatted_number,$subject,$message,$headers);
}
