Hello, I'm trying to embed a link in a form I'm creating but keep getting an error message that says: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in C:\web\lostpw.php on line 61 Here is the code portion I'm using: I'm not including the entire document, don't think it's relevant to my error. [code] $mailer->Message = "Dear $first_name,\n\n". "You have requested a new password for My PHP Site. ". "Below is your new login information:\n\n". "==========================\n". "Username: $username\n". "New Password: $newpass\n". "==========================\n\n". "You may login at any time ". "at http://$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']/login.php\n\n}". "Thank You!\n". "My PHP Site Administrator"; $mailer->SendMail(); [/code] Line 62 error is pointing to the "at http://$SERVER['SERVER_NAME']/login.php\n\n" Is there a better way to write this line? I'm using a book to help me and I think it may be wrong. Thanks for your help.

I sent you the link since it goes into more detail. Did you even try the solutions from my earlier post or the other link? Wendy [/quote] Yes they fixed the problem, I had extra spaces before I started the PHP engine. I removed them and it fixed the errors. Thanks for the help.

Also make sure that nowhere in any of those files have you sent anything to be printed or echoed. Then try surrounding your session code with OB_start(); and OB_flush();. But try the first things first. Wendy Edited: HEY! I'm not the first person to figure this out: Go have a look-see: [a href=\"http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=37442\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=37442[/a] [/quote] Thanks for the help. Just a FYI the link you so nicely posted says "cannot modify header info" and my skill level doesn't allow me to make assumptions yet and the links are broken in the thread.

Hey, I had a quick question maybe somebody could answer for me. When loading my login page for my members I get these session errors that display at the top of the page. I'm using WAMP5 and haven't had any problems with it so far, so I think it may be in the code. I have checked my Info file and the settings in the php.ini file match the settings listed in the PHP Manual session help section under table 1.0 Any help would be appreciated. [code] Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent by (output started at C:\web\layout.php:2) in C:\web\includes\session.php on line 7 Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at C:\web\layout.php:2) in C:\web\includes\session.php on line 7 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at C:\web\layout.php:2) in C:\web\includes\session.php on line 12[/code] This is the where I am creating my session variables in: login.php [code] <?php include $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/layout.php'; switch($_REQUEST['req']){ case "validate":     $validate = @mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members             WHERE username='{$_POST['username']}'             AND password = md5('{$_POST['password']}')             AND verified='1'"); if(mysql_num_rows($validate) == 1){         while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($validate)){             $_SESSION['login'] = true;             $_SESSION['userid'] = $row['id'];             $_SESSION['first_name'] = $row['first_name'];             $_SESSION['last_name'] = $row['last_name'];             $_SESSION['email_address'] = $row['email_address']; if($row['admin_access'] == 1){             $_SESSION['admin_access'] = true;             }             $login_time = mysql_query("UPDATE members             SET last_login=now()             WHERE id='{$row['id']}'");             } header("Location: /loggedin.php");         } else {             myheader("Login Failed!");             echo '<p align ="center">Login Failed</p>';             echo '<p align ="center">If you have already joined '.                  'out website, you may need to validate '.                  'your email address. '.                  'Please check your email for instructions. ';             footer();         }     break; default:         myheader("Login!");             include $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/html/forms/login_form.html';         footer();     break; } ?> [/code]

Just curious if anybody had a chance to look at this? I have no idea why it would work fine in one form but not another.

Hello, I was curious to see if maybe one of you may be able to help me with an issue I'm having. I am creating a membership signup form, data is entered into the form and then it is inserted into MySQL tables after all error checks have been completed. I am using WAMP5 1.6.1. Problem: The fields are displaying the $_POST php code instead of a blank field in the form. It is suppose to allow users to enter the information and if an error is encountered with their information it will allow them to click the back button in their browser and their info that was entered should remain in the form fields. But instead it is displaying "<?=$_POST['first_name'];?>" , "<?=$_POST['last_name'];?>" and etc for each field. Here is my Html form [code] <p><font size="4" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><strong>Become   a Member!</strong></font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Join our website   and enjoy the benefits of becoming a member!</font></p> <?php if($errors){ echo "<p align=\"center\"><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" color=\"#FF0000\">$errors</font></p>\n"; } ?> <div align="center"></div> <form method="post" action="/join.php">   <table width="50%" border="1" align="center" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0">     <tr>       <td width="200" align="left" valign="top" nowrap><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">First         Name</font></td>       <td width="179" align="left" valign="top"><input name="first_name" type="text" id="first_name" value="<?=$_POST['first_name'];?>"></td>     </tr>     <tr>       <td width="200" align="left" valign="top" nowrap><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Last         Name</font></td>       <td align="left" valign="top"><input name="last_name" type="text" id="last_name" value="<?=$_POST['last_name'];?>"></td>     </tr>     <tr>       <td width="200" align="left" valign="top" nowrap><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Email Address</font></td>       <td align="left" valign="top"><input name="email_address" type="text" id="email_address" value="<?=$_POST['email_address'];?>"></td>     </tr>     <tr>       <td align="left" valign="top" nowrap><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Verify Email Address</font></td>       <td align="left" valign="top"><input name="email_address2" type="text" id="email_address3" value="<?=$_POST['email_address2'];?>"></td>     </tr>     <tr>       <td width="200" align="left" valign="top" nowrap><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Desired         Username</font></td>       <td align="left" valign="top"><input name="username" type="text" id="username" value="<?=$_POST['username'];?>"></td>     </tr>     <tr>       <td width="200" align="left" valign="top" nowrap><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Password</font></td>       <td align="left" valign="top"><input name="password" type="password" id="password" value="<?=$_POST['password'];?>"></td>     </tr>     <tr>       <td width="200" align="left" valign="top" nowrap><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Password         Again</font></td>       <td align="left" valign="top"><input name="password2" type="password" id="password2" value="<?=$_POST['password2'];?>"></td>     </tr>     <tr>       <td width="200" align="left" valign="top" nowrap><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Tell         us about yourself!</font></td>       <td align="left" valign="top"><textarea name="bio"><?=$_POST['bio'];?></textarea></td>     </tr>     <tr>       <td align="left" valign="top">&nbsp;</td>       <td align="left" valign="top"><input name="req" type="hidden" id="req" value="process">         <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit Information!"></td>     </tr>   </table> </form> [/code] And here is my Join.php file.
