How to fix parse error, unexpected ')' in

[xiaumiau]

I got a customer paid successfully through Paypal during checkout, but got a error message right after that step:

 

Parse error: parse error, unexpected ')' in /checkout_process.php on line 261

 

And then the order didn't get recorded or anything...

What should I do to fix it??

 

Thanks for your help :)

Probably you forgot to close a quote somewhere, didn't put a semicolon at the end of a line or something like that. I would first look at the end of line 260 and make sure there's a ; at the end. If that doesn't do it, you can post a few lines around line 261 (like 258-263 or so) and maybe we can take a look at the code and see what's wrong.

 

If you don't know where line 261 is, you should get an editor that shows you. I would recommend either DEV-PHP or PHPEdit - a google search for either of those will turn up some free software that works great. Both of these will color-code your code and make it much easier to locate oopses like this.

Thanks for your help!!

Below is between line 260~270 in checkout_process.php

 

// send emails to other people

if (SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO != ) {tep_mail(, SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO,

EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT, "Order from:

 

" . $order->customer['email_address'] . "

 

" . nl2br

 

($email_order), $order->customer['firstname'] . ' ' . $order->customer['lastname'], $order->customer

['email_address'], '');

}

 

Dev-PHP doesn't show what's wrong with it (or maybe I just can't tell). Can you help me out?

 

Thank you :)

{tep_mail(,

 

That's at least one problem right there - a comma right after opening the parentheses. Try deleting that comma, changing that statement to:

 

tep_mail(SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO,
