AyKay47 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 when you post code, the color coder can show you where you are messing up in your code mysql_query("DELETE FROM users WHERE `signup_date` <DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)"); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjfletcher90 Posted August 5, 2011 Author Share Posted August 5, 2011 retested and submitted a new record and changed the date to two (2) days ago and: successful in deleting record from within the phpmyadmin DELETE FROM users WHERE `signup_date` <DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 1 DAY) yet received this error when the php script is run from the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in test.php on line 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyKay47 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 <?php $db = mysql_connect("removed credentials"); if (!$db) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db("databasename", $db); mysql_query("DELETE FROM users WHERE `signup_date` < DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)"); mysql_close($db); ?> there is no unexpected end here...

jjfletcher90 Posted August 5, 2011 Author Share Posted August 5, 2011 OK.... cut and pasted your exact code: which is basically identical to mine except line spaces etc... <?php $db = mysql_connect("removed credentials"); if (!$db) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db("databasename", $db); mysql_query("DELETE FROM users WHERE `signup_date` < DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)"); mysql_close($db); ?> into the text editor and pushed via FTP to the server and ran the PHP script.... This is the error on the web browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in test.php on line 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
