[SOLVED] What is wrong with this code?

[papaface]

Hello,

I am having a problem with a piece of code.

I get this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/**/public_html/qss/includes/memberfunctions.php on line 24

 

			function CheckUsername($username)
			{
			$username = trim($username);
			if	($username != "" || $username != " ")
				{
                		$check = mysql_query('SELECT `username` FROM `members` WHERE `username`="{$username}"');
               		 if	(mysql_num_rows($check) == 0)
                		{
                		$this->username = $username;
                		return true;
                		}
                	else
				return false;
			}
			else
				return false;
			}//line24	

I have commented line 24 at the bottom. I can't see what is wrong ???

If this code was even the slightest bit formatted, the error would probably jump right out. As it is, I can't make sense of the braces... sorry

It is formatted actually, just its not inserting correcting in this forum. There are the right amount of braces.

Hopefully this will paste properly

function CheckUsername($username)
{
$username = trim($username);
if	($username != "" || $username != " ")
	{
          	$check = mysql_query('SELECT `username` FROM `members` WHERE `username`="{$username}"');
		if	(mysql_num_rows($check) == 0)
			{
				$this->username = $username;
				return true;
			}
                else
			return false;
	}
else
	return false;
}	

 

P.S This is part of a class.

Edit:

Fixed. I missed a ; LATER on in the script  ???

Yeah, this forum seems to do weird things with tabs... I used to work with tabs, but now I format with spaces so that it posts correctly.. anyways, glad you got your problem solved!
