  • In [RESOLVED] Parse error: T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM

    Thanks so much for pointing that out! I looked at it for so long that I was missing the obvious! It now works!

    • In [RESOLVED] Parse error: T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM

      I am creating an RSVP form that is supposed to submit information to sendrsvp.php.

      When I click on submit, I am getting the following errors:

      Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in C:\xampp\htdocs\Chapter.06\Projects\SendRSVP.php on line 25

      I have checked everything over again to the point where I can't find any errors.

      Can someone please proof my code and let me know if you find anything? The error states unexpected '[' but all my '[' are paired up.

      Code for rsvp.html

      • In [RESOLVED] Using PHP to calculate a paycheck - issues with doing this

        I am very new to PHP. Right now we are working with functions and control structures. I have an assignment where I have to calculate earnings based on wage, hours, and potential overtime over 40 hours at 1.5.

        There are no examples in my text at this point that I can follow from for direction and at this point I am going blind.

        Can someone please provide assistance or direction on what I should be doing? As of now, all I am getting are errors.
