[SOLVED] PHP Error

[bravo14]

Hi All

 

Using the code below I am getting an error of

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /home/fhlinux171/b/bravo14.co.uk/user/htdocs/gavster/headlines.php on line 41,

 

however I have copied a page that works and changed the relevant parts which will mean that line 41 is OK, I appreciate that the code could probably be slicker, however still learning php, can anyone spot any errors with the code that would get the error ?

 

<?php
$con = mysql_connect('ip', 'user', 'password', true);
if(!$con)
{
      die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db('gavstersays', $con);
$result = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM `posts`where `topic_id`=\'' . $_GET['topic_id'] . '\'' , $con) or die(mysql_error());
if(mysql_num_rows($result) < 1) 
{ 

   echo('<tr><td colspan="2">Sorry, no results were found.</td></tr>'); 
} 
else 
{ 
   while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
    {
echo('<tr><td>'.date("d-M-Y", strtotime($row[postdate])).'</td>');
echo('<td><a href="article.php?post_id='.$row[post_id].'">'.$row[title].'</a></td></tr>');
}
}
?>

I've not counted, but i'm fairly confident that there's not 41 lines in the code you posted. Any chance of pointing us to the correct one?

Ya, you're going to need to point out the right line, makes it easier on us
