[SOLVED] Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ELSEIF What do I do??

[electripunk]

I am creating a generator. This consists of 4 pages and 4 codes.

 

I have a generator.php

            code.php

            generator-code.php

            preview.php

 

here is what we are looking at:

 

(((((top of page code)))))

 

<?

include('../../../config.php');

 

if ($_POST['gen'])

{

      include ($sm['path_base'] . 'my_dir/code.php');

 

include ($sm['path_inc'] . 'header.php');

?>

 

 

(((((bottom of page code)))))

 

<?

{

elseif ($_POST['view'])    <-------------------This is line 173 (where the error is)

{

include($sm['path_base'] . 'my_dir/preview.php');

}

?>

 

 

Here is the problem. I have tried several different things, but nothing seem to work. If I remove the include function from the top  'gen' function, it works but with an undefined function 'gen' line 12

 

With 'gen' defined as you see, I get a parse error, and a white page.

The parse error is:

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ELSEIF mydirectory/generator-code.php

 

 

What am I doing wrong?

The bracket "{" before the "elseif" probably should be "}".

The bracket "{" before the "elseif" probably should be "}".

ok, so i changed "{" to "}" and I get a different error all together.

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in mydir/generator-code.php

We need to see actual code. (In

tags please)

This is all the code in question. I have gotten the code to work, but still shows an error. The error is undefined index 'gen' in mydir/generator-code.php

change it to

if (isset($_POST['gen']) && $_POST['gen'])

[electripunk]

Thank you so much!!!

 

if (isset($_POST['gen']) && $_POST['gen'])

 

That did it. I am new to php so I am a little lost still, but I am catching on i believe.
