kenrbnsn Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 It looks like there could be a hidden character on this line: <?php EOD; ?> (this is the second one). Delete this line and re-type it. Ken Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/175022-parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-end/#findComment-922492 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont you want quotes? edit: cool didnt know about Heredoc.. neat personally...i don't like that way of outputting...i think it's messy...i'd rather just close and re-open the php tags And it's pernicketty... no additional characters on the heredoc end line before the EOD; or after, no spaces between EOD and ; etc. very prone to non-obvious errors Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/175022-parse-error-syntax-error-unexpected-end/#findComment-923349 Share on other sites More sharing options...
