What's wrong with this bit of code then?

[Guest]

Ok if you look down the forum i had problem changing the index in language/english/includes/index.php so that the front page was personalised. i have tried so many different things and now taken virtually everything out. I am still having problems with a parse error now on line 16. please can someone tell me where the error is and what it is.

 

I have never used perl before have no idea at all what i am doing at all. I got rid of all the text in the main bit of the index, in the intention of putting in my text somehow, but i just don't seem to know what to do

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Let\'s See What We Have Here');

 

and this line

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'What's New Here?');

to this

i can't believe it was that simple i had so many errors when i was trying to change it. i was ready to strangle the thing, and it was all about punctuation. now i didn't put those sentances in there so they must have been wrong from the start. bet everyone's having that problem that has the same version as me then.

 

thank you so much. i'm going to go home now and see if it works. can't wait to get no errors

You'll help yourself out if you get a PHP editor to look at these files. Search on Google for phpedit and see what comes up. Most will color-code your text for you - so it's easier to spot a stray ' or a missing ).
