Uh Oh!

[BenFremer]

I am now receiving an error from a site that I put together:

 

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /var/www/html/td/tdiproducts.net/includes/languages/english/index.php on line 33

 

I was having a similar error with the same file on another OSCommerce site I am putting together. I copied the above referenced file to the page, and now the working site is also broken.

 

What is the error, and how do I fix it?

 

Here is the code for the page:

Thanks,

Lines 32 & 33, you're missing the escape slashes.

 

define('TEXT_BUY', 'Buy 1 \'');

define('TEXT_NOW', '\' now');

 

What are you editing with? You can't use the file manager as an editor.

or

 

define('TEXT_BUY', 'Buy 1 '');

define('TEXT_NOW', '' now');

 

to

 

define('TEXT_BUY', 'Buy 1 ');

define('TEXT_NOW', ' now');

[BenFremer]

or

 

define('TEXT_BUY', 'Buy 1 '');

define('TEXT_NOW', '' now');

 

to

 

define('TEXT_BUY', 'Buy 1 ');

define('TEXT_NOW', ' now');

 

Thank you both and thank you John. I put the text to John's recommendation, using the file manager, and now it is just loading a purely blank page. Do you have any recommendations?

This could be sizable trouble if I can't get this fixed soon. :-/

 

Thanks,

Suggestion #1 Do not use the file manager to edit pages... ever.

Suggestion #2 Upload the original file, or a backup if you have one via FTP. If you don't have one you can get it from the download link at the top of the page.

Thank you. I uploaded the standard file from the OSCommerce download via FTP, and it is still just going to a white screen. :'(

[BenFremer]

Uh oh. I can't even get the original error now. What does file manager do to your files? Am I going to have to rebuild this from scratch?

 

Hopefully I was so cheap that he won't sue me.

[BenFremer]

HALLELUJAH!

 

It's fixed. Thank you guys!
