wildteen88 Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 If you are getting that error message then you'll find that you have too many open and closing braces - {} - make sure they all pair up also make sure you parenthesis pair up too ()One thing I can tell you that can help you make sure you braces pair up is indent your code. Have a look at your code now:[code]<?php// Get the 'username' varible from flash$username = $_POST['username'];$guessfirstname = $_POST['firstname'];$guessid = $_POST['id'];// Start database connection$dbcnx = @mysql_connect("localhost","alexg_si","password");if (!$dbcnx){ echo "Unable to connect to the database server at this time."; exit();}mysql_select_db("alexg_web", $dbcnx);$result = @mysql_query("SELECT guessed, guessedright FROM whoamipeople WHERE id = '$guessid'");if (!$result){ exit("<p>Error performing query: " . mysql_error() . "</p>");}// Disply the users Account Details $row["Clue"]while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ $oldguessed = $row["guessed"]; $addingone = '1'; $newguessed = $oldguessed + $addingone; $oldguessedright = $row["guessedright"]; $newguessedright = $oldguessedright + $addingone;}// done adding onemysql_select_db("alexg_web",$dbcnx);$resultupdateguess = @mysql_query("UPDATE whoamipeople SET guessed = '$newguessed', guessedright = '$newguessedright' WHERE Firstname = '$guessfirstname'");$resultupdateguessisitright = @mysql_query("SELECT guessedright FROM whoamipeople WHERE id = '$guessid'");while ($rowright = mysql_fetch_array($resultupdateguessisitright)){ $oldguessedrightisitright = $rowright["guessedright"]; if ($oldguessedrightisitright == $newguessedright) { echo "<p>Thank You, Processing Your Guess.</p>"; $resultupdateguesscorrect = @mysql_query("UPDATE whoamipeople SET score + 100 WHERE Username = '$username'"); echo "<p>Checking if guessed firstname is a match in the Who Am I? Database...</p>"; echo "<p>Yes! That is correct! You have gained 100 points. Check out your Account Info for your score!</p>"; } else { echo "<p>Checking if guessed firstname is a match in the Who Am I? Database...</p>"; echo "<p>Sorry, that is the incorrect name. Nice Try!</p>"; }} //this was your missing backet!// swich back to html mode to create divider//?>[/code]As you can see your code is much more readable and easy to identify code blocks, just press your tab key once when you go into a code block, ie a if statement, while loop, creating functions etc. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/6334-what-am-i-doing-wrong-here/#findComment-22880 Share on other sites More sharing options...
