I am using Dreamweaver to build a mySQL-PHP website. An update record page with two dynamic menus is not functioning - it shows the error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_BAD_CHARACTER, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in [i][!--coloro:#666666--][span style=\"color:#666666\"][!--/coloro--]updatepage[[!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--]/i].php on line 218 [b]Recordset info:[/b] rsVoter: calling record to be updated rsPrecincts: calls dynamic menu #1's info [b]line 218 reads:[/b] <option value="<?php echo $row_rsPrecincts['votingprecinct_id']?>"<?php if (!(strcmp($row_rsPrecincts['votingprecinct_id'], "$row_rsVoter[\'votingprecinct_id\']"))) {echo "SELECTED";} ?>><?php echo $row_rsPrecincts['precinctname']?></option> [b]and it is followed on the next line by:[/b] <?php } while ($row_rsPrecincts = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsPrecincts)); $rows = mysql_num_rows($rsPrecincts); if($rows > 0) { mysql_data_seek($rsPrecincts, 0); $row_rsPrecincts = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsPrecincts); } ?> [b]Is there a glaring syntax error on line 218 that my untrained eye has missed?[/b]
