Hi all ive trying to code a comment like thing for my website where users can comment on other users profiles:

<?php
///////////// Start Of New Code ///////////////
///////////// Add Comment On Profile //////////

include ("config.php");
include ("makelogin.php");

////////////// Includes //////////////////

$username = $logged['username'];
$ul = $logged['userlevel'];
$msg=strip_tags($_POST['msg']);
$date = gmdate('Y-m-d h:i:s');

///////////// Starting Varibals //////////////////

$query=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='$username' LIMIT 1");
$fetch=mysql_fetch_object($query);

///////////// Querys /////////////////////////

if($ul == "owner"){
if (strip_tags($_POST['submit'])
///////////////////// Line 158 is The One BELOW This ////////////////////////////////// 
mysql_query("INSERT INTO `pmessages` ( `id` , `title` , `from` , `message` , `date` , `unread` )
VALUES (
'', 'Profile Comment', '$username', '$msg', '$date', 'unread'
)");
echo ("<font color='black'>Comment Sent To $username!");
}

///////////// Sending The Comment They Sent ///////////////////
?>

<html>
<form method="post" action="">
<table width='80%' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0' border='1' bordercolor='#000000'>
<tr>
<td>
  <p align="center">Comment To Send: <br>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
    <textarea name="msg" cols="40" rows="8" id="msg"></textarea>
</td>	
</tr>
<tr>
</td>
    <input type="submit" value="Send Comment">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</html>

I have an error saying :

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/a7502957/public_html/members.php on line 158

Any one know why?

Thanks

perhaps if you hi-lighted the relevant portion of code it would help us identify the issue?

What you mean? Thats all the code to the comment system.

ToonMariner · September 13, 2009

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/a7502957/public_html/members.php on line 158

It would be great if you could highlight the line of code the parser is telling you to check. It may well be the actual issue is before this line so if you could show the code in members.php (as much as possible) so that we can see line 158 and what code relates to it.

 if($ul == "owner"){
if (strip_tags($_POST['submit'])
///////////////////// Line 158 is The One BELOW This ////////////////////////////////// 
mysql_query("INSERT INTO `pmessages` ( `id` , `title` , `from` , `message` , `date` , `unread` )

}

Either I learned something or I see one thing you are doing wrong. At "if (strip_tags($_POST['submit'])" there is no "{". Now I could be wrong, but whats the point of an "if" if there is no "{"?

I could show you all of my members.php file if you want? But that code there is basicly the comment system. Before i added that there it all work good..

But here is members.php with the other code in it.:

<?php
include('css/style.css');
include("makelogin.php");
include("functions.php");
?>
<?
session_start();
ob_start();
include("config.php");
if (!$_GET[user])
{
$getuser = mysql_query("SELECT * from users order by id asc");
while ($user = mysql_fetch_array($getuser))
{
// gets all the users information. 
echo ("<a href=\"members.php?user=$user[username]\">$user[username]</a><br />\n");
// links to a page to view the user's profile.
}
}
ELSE
{
$getuser = mysql_query("SELECT * from users where username = '$_GET[user]'");
$usernum = mysql_num_rows($getuser);
if ($usernum == 0)
{
echo ("User Not Found");
}
else
{
$profile = mysql_fetch_array($getuser);

That worked, Just now it isnt incerting into the database.

ngreenwood6 · September 13, 2009

i dont see a database connection. is that in the config.php file or the makelogin.php file?

ToonMariner · September 13, 2009

all apologies - I didn't see the comment in the line code... - my bad.

ngreenwood picked up the missing brace on the if...

The connection is in the config file

PugJr · September 13, 2009

ngreenwood picked up the missing brace on the if...

I wasn't talking about the ")" which is one thing, but I just meant the "{" and "}" on the if. What does the "if" even do if there is no "{" and "}"?

EDIT: Err nevermind.

Ive added the "{" and "}" in but i dont think i did any difference.

ngreenwood6 · September 13, 2009

can you show me the code from the config.php file?

dean7 · September 13, 2009

can you show me the code from the config.php file?
