Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING calling php file from Webhost

[xar19]

Hi so I am trying to run my cron job configured through cpanel right now, using a localserver on my personal computer.

I am getting this error when running it through localhost "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in C:\xampp\htdocs\Call_random_homepage1.php on line 2"

Here's my code.

<?php
$data = file wget  (Mydirectory)

"php
ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set("max_execution_time", 0);

require_once('core.php');
/* ------------------------------------------------------------------------*
* Calling Process Campaign
* ------------------------------------------------------------------------*/	
$alb=new alb ;

// log cron
$alb->log('Cron_Job_Run','Cron');
$alb->process_campaigns();
$alb->check_approved();


$data;
?>

Any help would be appreciated, I'm new to this.

Thanks!

When posting PHP code, please use the board's [noparse]

[/noparse] bbcode tags as they make your cod emuch easier to read and analyze.

As for your issue, what's with the "php around line #4? It doesn't quite belong.

I took out that line, but it didn't make a difference still an issue with line two. I mean I think this is possible to do. I am trying to run this cron job on my pc so that I don't use up all my shared hosting providers resources.

The directory starts with the home of my ftp file manager on my host.
