Parse error: parse error, unexpected '\"'

[beachglassdirect]

I am writing a script for dynamic links and images. I have based it on osCommerce 2.2 MS2. I get this prase error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected '\"' in /home/beachgla/public_html/top.php on line 103

Here is the code of top.php

You must escape your quotes! Change

[code]$image = ("<img src="" . tep_output_string($src) . "" border="0" alt="" . tep_output_string($alt) . """);[/code]

to

[code]$image = ("<img src=\"" . tep_output_string($src) . "\" border=\"0\" alt="\" . tep_output_string($alt) . "\"");[/code]

Now I get this:
[code]Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in /home/beachgla/public_html/top.php on line 103

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '\"' in /home/beachgla/public_html/top.php on line 103[/code]

[beachglassdirect]

Anyone, Please Help [img src=\"style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/excl.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":excl:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"excl.gif\" /]

[ober]

I don't understand the reason for the (). Those are unnecessary.

[code]$image = '<img src="' . tep_output_string($src) . '" border="0" alt="' . tep_output_string($alt) . '"';[/code]

Give that a shot.

Just correct your code,

from this
[code]$image = ("<img src="" . tep_output_string($src) . "" border="0" alt="" . tep_output_string($alt) . """);[/code]
to this
[code]$image = '<img src="' . tep_output_string($src) . '" border="0" alt="' . tep_output_string($alt) . '"';[/code]

from this
[code]$image .= " title=" " . tep_output_string($alt) . " "";[/code]
to this
[code]$image .= ' title=" ' . tep_output_string($alt) . ' "';[/code]

from this
[code]$image .= " width="" . tep_output_string($width) . "" height="" . tep_output_string($height) . """;[/code]
to this
[code]$image .= ' width="' . tep_output_string($width) . '" height="' . tep_output_string($height) . '"';[/code]

You also have some error with { } messed up, correct them too. And be ware with OsCommerce modifications in future :)
