Parse error unexpected '$' on line 202

[smitty03]

I'm not sure but I think line 202 is the end of my code. I have php embedded in an html document and it gives me this error.

the snippet of php looks like this and the rest is standard html.

I'ts the page that shows up after the user signs up and is inserted in the database.

 

<?php 

include("config.php"); 

// connect to the mysql server
$link = mysql_connect($server, $db_user, $db_pass)
or die ("Could not connect to mysql because ".mysql_error());

// select the database
mysql_select_db($database)
or die ("Could not select database because ".mysql_error());

// check if the username is taken
$check = "select userid from $table where username = '".$_POST['myusername']."';"; 
$qry = mysql_query($check) or die ("Could not match data because ".mysql_error());
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($qry); 
if ($num_rows != 0) { 
echo "Sorry, there the username $myusername is already taken.<br>";
echo "<a href=signup.html>Try again</a>";
exit; 
} else {

// insert the data
$insert = mysql_query("insert into $table values ('NULL', '".$_POST['name']."','".$_POST['myusername']."',
'".$_POST['mypassword']."','".$_POST['myemail']."','".$_POST['mygender']."')")
or die("Could not insert data because ".mysql_error());

// print a success message
echo 
"<h1><big>Thanks For Signing up!</big></h1>
<p>
Start here by <a href=\"login.html\">Logging in</a> </p>
<p>
Or go <a href=\"tapdat.html\">tap dat</a> and rate someones pictures</p>
<p>But if you really want to have fun and start racking up points for your gender <br />
Then go <a href=\"argue.html\">Start some Arguments</a>
</p>"; ?>
?>

The error doesn't make sense but it might be because you have two end php tags ("?>") at the end.
