unexpected T_AS

[april2008]

Having error for my code

 

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_AS in C:\Apache2.2\htdocs\rssread.php on line 4

 

this is the code i have

 

<?php $rssFeeds = array ('phpbuilder.rss');

// for now we'll just have the one file, but this can later be expanded

//Loop through the array (just one element for now) and read the feedforeach

($rssFeeds as $feed) {  readFeeds($feed);}

// The function to be called when a start element is read. For now we'll

// just echo some outputfunction

startElement($xp,$name,$attributes) { 

echo "Start $name <br>";}

function endElement($xp,$name) { 

echo "End: $name<br>";}

 

function readFeeds($feed) { 

$fh = fopen($feed,'r');

// open file for reading 

$xp = xml_parser_create();

// Create an XML parser resource 

xml_set_element_handler($xp, "startElement", "endElement");

// defines which functions to call when element started/ended 

while ($data = fread($fh, 4096)) {   

if (!xml_parse($xp,$data)) {     

return 'Error in the feed';    }  }}?>

You probably need foreach before ($rssFeeds as $feed)

 

If you look carefully you'll see it got into a comment one line above.

[POG1]

($rssFeeds as $feed) {  readFeeds($feed);}

 

That line is doing nothing..

[april2008]

ok. i changed to the code below

 

<?php $rssFeeds = array ('phpbuilder.rss');

// for now we'll just have the one file, but this can later be expanded

//Loop through the array (just one element for now) and read the feedforeach

foreach ($rssFeeds as $feed) {

  readFeeds($feed);

}

 

// The function to be called when a start element is read. For now we'll

// just echo some outputfunction

function startElement($xp,$name,$attributes) { 

echo "Start $name <br>";}

function endElement($xp,$name) { 

echo "End: $name<br>";}

 

function characterDataHandler($xp,$data) {

  echo "Data: $data

";

}

 

 

function readFeeds($feed) { 

$fh = fopen($feed,'r');

// open file for reading 

$xp = xml_parser_create();

// Create an XML parser resource 

xml_set_element_handler($xp, "startElement", "endElement");

// defines which functions to call when element started/ended 

while ($data = fread($fh, 4096)) {   

if (!xml_parse($xp,$data)) {     

return 'Error in the feed';    }  }}?>

 

 

but how come it display a blank page?

[POG1]

You will need to change the error reporting to E_ALL

[april2008]

which part of error reporting?

[POG1]

ini_set() or try looking in the error log.

[Mchl]

Check 'PHP Debugging: A Beginner's guide ' link in my signature.

 

Besides, none of your code actually echoes anything, so what do you expect?

 

Ok I see it now

 

 

[april2008]

OK. i already turn on the ini_set('display_errors','On'); 

 

but it still blank

Hello, may be this scheme can help you:

 

<?php

 

//Initialize the XML parser

 

$parser=xml_parser_create();

 

/*Function to use at the start of an element*/

 

function start($parser,$element_name,$element_attrs)

 

{

 

  switch($element_name)

 

    {

 

      case "NOTE":

 

      echo "-- Note --<br />";

 

      break;

 

      case "TO":

 

      echo "To: ";

 

      break;

 

      case "FROM":

 

      echo "From: ";

 

      break;

 

      case "HEADING":

 

      echo "Heading: ";

 

      break;

 

      case "BODY":

 

      echo "Message: ";

 

    }

 

}

 

//Function to use at the end of an element

 

function stop($parser,$element_name)

 

  {

 

    echo "<br/>";

 

  }

 

//Function to use when finding character data

 

function char($parser,$data)

 

  {

 

    echo $data;

 

  }

 

//Specify element handler

 

xml_set_element_handler($parser,"start","stop");

 

//Specify data handler

 

xml_set_character_data_handler($parser,"char");

 

//Open XML file

 

$fp=fopen("test.xml","r");

 

//Read data

 

while ($data=fread($fp,4096))

 

  {

 

    xml_parse($parser,$data,feof($fp)) or

 

    die (sprintf("XML Error: %s at line %d",

 

    xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($parser)),

 

    xml_get_current_line_number($parser)));

 

  }

 

//Free the XML parser

 

xml_parser_free($parser);

 

?>

For giving of this example I used this resource http://phpforms.net/tutorial/php-xml/xml-expat-parser.html

It's unlikely that OP still has this problem after more than one YEAR.
