m1k3yb0y Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Hey guys! Since my previous post, I got me some new and better hosting for my website. Now I am getting my simple contact form set up on it....and...well, when I submit my contact info, I get a 500 Internal Server error which my browser think it is so it shows its own version of the error. I looked at my error log and this is what it came up with: "PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in /var/www/contact0.php on line 662, referer: http://www.mikeytatelive.com/contactform.php" Anybody know how to fix that problem? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu2000 Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Usually means you missed a closing quote, or line terminating semicolon. Does your editor support syntax highlighting and brace matching? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1k3yb0y Posted June 7, 2012 Author Share Posted June 7, 2012 yep it does syntax highlighting for all sorts of coding things like php for instance. however, it doesn't do brace matching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maq Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 You don't have an opening PHP tag <?php. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1k3yb0y Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 sorry for lack of response, but I am such a noob at php. I forgot the opening tag like what Maq said. Anyway, after a few minor adjustments, it works now. Thanks guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
