Nullachtfuffzehn Posted October 1, 2007 Posted October 1, 2007 You got to escape single quotes in the text with a backslash. Otherwise php interprets it as the end of the string but without ending the statement which causes the error. In this case it was the party's single quote. <?php /* $Id: conditions.php,v 1.4 2002/11/19 01:48:08 dgw_ Exp $ osCommerce, Open Source E-Commerce Solutions http://www.oscommerce.com Copyright © 2002 osCommerce Released under the GNU General Public License */ define('NAVBAR_TITLE', 'Conditions of Use'); define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Conditions of Use'); define('TEXT_INFORMATION','By accessing and continuing to use this site users accept and undertake to abide by e-SmartLiving conditions of use set out below.
