Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING

Why am I getting this error?

$Birth = $_POST['birth'];

//STEP 3 Check To See If All Information Is Correct

if($Password == "" || $Re_Password == "")

if($Password != $Re_Password)

Post the actual error.

[ManiacDan]

There is no syntax error in this code.

 

The error you got will include a line number and a file name.  Find that line in that file.  Show us that line and the 10 lines above it.

 

Also, "oops" is spelled like that.

Same code as before

[Jessica]

There is still no syntax error in that file.

[jazzman1]

Do you understand what does a piece of code mean?

 

if(!mysql_query("INSERT INTO Users (email, username, password, birth)
VALUES ('$Email', '$Username', '$Password', '$Birth')"))

[fantity]

There is still no syntax error in that file.

 

I don't know what's wrong here

Still no error in the posted code. Post the whole file, in the same state it's in when it causes the error.

 

EDIT: Post it from the beginning to 5 lines past the error . . .

[ManiacDan]

Are you in the right file?

Am I missing a bracket or something? And yes this is the right file

[Pikachu2000]

Still no errors in the posted code. How are you determining there's an error? Is this on a hosted site, or local? Are you sure the edited copy of the file is in the right location (directory)?

When I press register it gives me the error. I use a free webhost. And yes it's the right directory

[jazzman1]

What's happening  if you try to delete line 62?

[fantity]

What's happening  if you try to delete line 62?

 

Same error

[jazzman1]

Put this one on the top  immediately after php open tag.

<?php
echo 'check'; exit; 
$connect = mysql_connect("","","");
etc......

[Jessica]

Then you're editing the wrong file or not uploading the file.

[ManiacDan]

You are most likely not in the file you think you're in.  Does your host cache and/or accelerate your files?

No, here is the html code as well as the php code again.

Also, if I take away mkdir and copy it works fine.

[Pikachu2000]

Why are you creating a new directory and index.php file every time there's a new registration anyhow?

[ManiacDan]

Ok, for the last time, this can't possibly be the code.  Look, I'll prove it.  The very first line:

echo 'check'; exit; 

That would exit the script with the word check.  Every time.  This is clearly not the code you're running in production.

[fantity]

Why are you creating a new directory and index.php file every time there's a new registration anyhow?

 

It is a file cloud website which makes a dir to store their files, the index.php that I am copying into that folder makes sure they can't use other people's folders and contains the file uploader etc.

[premiso]

"Cloud"

 

Fuggin buzz words.

[ManiacDan]

That's usually not how cloud storage works.  There's still no security on these files, even if index.php asks for a password.

 

Still though, your script is fine.

[fantity]

I changed the end of the script to this

$name = $_POST['username'];
if(!file_exists("files/" . $name)) 
  { 
  mkdir("files/" . $name);  

  }
if(!file_exists("files/" . $name . "/index.php")) 
  { 
  $old = "cindex.php";
  $new = "files/" . $name . "/index.php";
  copy($old, $new) or die("Unable to copy $old to $new.");
  
  }
echo "Registered";

and I have no more errors
