Parse error help

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' , on the line with the first for loop. 

if($screen_resolution =="1024x768"){
			for($col = 0; $col < 9; $col++)
}
			elseif($screen_resolution =="1440x900"){
                for($col = 0; $col < 14; $col++)
}

is there a reason you're doing nothing with those for loops? i'm pretty sure for loops require {}

this would be easy.. but i don't know where the brackets end, so i put the if statement just around the start of the for loop and the for loop brackets outside the if statements. Is there a program that can contract brackets in php code?

Random code, the sane way of doing what your code does above is the following.

 

if($screen_resolution =="1024x768") {
   $col = 8;
}else if($screen_resolution =="1440x900") {
   $col = 13;
}

ok, have just read your reply. I get what you're trying to do, but this is the completely wrong way to go about it. You should do the following.

 

if($screen_resolution =="1024x768") {
   $max = 9;
}else if($screen_resolution =="1440x900") {
   $max = 14;
}

for($col = 0; $col < $max; $col++) {
// code in your for loop...
}
