TC_uk Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Hello. I've just started work on my first website design in 10 years! To say that I'm new to PHP would be an exaggeration... I plan to have a private web page for tech image reference, so when I saw a magazine article showing how to incorporate a Flickr gallery on to a site, using php and "phpFlickr", I thought, yeah, let's give it a try. Unfortunately (for me) all the PHP appears on a printed page, and I've had to recreate it by sight, and without a clue what it ought to look like and then why it's not working. As this uses Flickr.com (which needs an account) along with downloaded files from phpFlickr (https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=139987), I don't really expect anybody can do anymore than tell me what might be wrong with the following... What happens is that I get a parsing error on the require_once line. However, I've successfully run an alternate class from this self-same line (which at least proves that the require_once directory call is working), so I suspect that the problem is somewhere else...[i just don't know how to take this to pieces to see what's wrong...] If anybody would be kind enough to check the parsing/syntax for the attached and let me know what might be wrong, that would be truly great.

Hypnos Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 What's the full error? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypnos Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 I opened up the file, and there are line numbers. Looks like someone copied and pasted something more than they should have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TC_uk Posted August 18, 2007 Author Share Posted August 18, 2007 What's the full error? My browser returns...

TC_uk Posted August 18, 2007 Author Share Posted August 18, 2007 Hopefully you read this before you try to do it by hand. Actually I just launched the app I use and clicked 'remove' numbers. Is your code, my code without the numbers? TC [attachment deleted by admin] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TC_uk Posted August 18, 2007 Author Share Posted August 18, 2007 The 10 minute hiatus was so I could check the text I'd already uploaded to the server, to see whether the line numbers were there as well - not necessarily - but actually, yes; they were! So I've stripped the numbers out and now the error is as follows: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/blah/public_html/pictures.php on line 25 ...Which is this: $user = $flickr->people_findByUsername($username); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
