Parse error: parse error, unexpected ')', expecting ']'

February 16, 2008

Hi, I was updating the about us page and now have a parse error message. I have been through the html numerous times and can't figure out what to change. If someone could help me out I would be eternally grateful!!!!!!

Here is the message I am getting:

[sarcasm]No I did it in order to hack your site![/sarcasm]

:blush: I'm sorry, it's all just going over my head! :blush:

Do you mean because I posted all of the html? I don't even know what hardcoded means :blush: I'm was just trying to fix some text for SEO and accidentally hit a button, I believe it was ] and then got this error.

I honestly don't know if what you typed is how I am supposed to fix it. I tried typing that, not knowing if I was supposed to or not.

My apologies . . sarcastic moment aimed at entirely the wrong person :-"

In your script as posted ..

if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['action'] && ($HTTP_GET_VARS['action'] == 'send' {

Should be ..

if ( isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['action']) && $HTTP_GET_VARS['action'] == 'send' ) {

You're sweet, thank you. Normally I am all about sarcasm, it's my favorite thing, but I am so lost I didn't even get it!

I will try it and pray that it works!

Is there a way for someone to delete the rest of the html from my post so it is not all there for the world to see? I didn't see an edit option anywhere.

I truly appreciate you taking time to help me with this.
