PHP syntax error - unexpected T_STRING in /net/home/z6zhou/public_html/signup.php on

Hi,

I got the syntax error in my following php code:

Re: PHP syntax error - unexpected T_STRING in /net/home/z6zhou/public_html/signup.php on
Use code tags. It really hard to follow your code.

There is 0 php in the code you posted. The only reason you are getting the error is because you have short_tags enabled.

PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
causes an error because <? is the opening (short) tag for php.
Replace it with:
PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. <?php echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>'; ?>

But it doesn't work. Could you tell me the reasons?
Hey.

Sadly, the fact that the code doesn't work doesn't exactly help us debug it. Nor does posting the part of your PHP code that isn't actually PHP ;-)

Please explain why/how it isn't working, what you have tried to fix it, and why it failed. And, of course, any and all error messages you get.

We aren't here to debug the code for you. We are here to help you debug it.

Re: PHP syntax error - unexpected T_STRING in /net/home/z6zhou/public_html/signup.php on
I tried to create an online account for signing up in my homepage by php code. But my code seems html and not php. My question is how to change my html code into php and make my online sign up account work. My homepage is
http://www.bioinformatics.uwaterloo....hou/signup.php
Please take a look at the source code and tell me why it doesn't work. Thanks a lot.

Re: PHP syntax error - unexpected T_STRING in /net/home/z6zhou/public_html/signup.php on
Search online for registration scripts, there are lots of them.

We will not write your code for you, go research it and ask specific questions when something doesn't work.

Use code tags, its easy. Highlight the code and click the Code button...

Also, why the hell do you have a >2MB jpg image on the page? Waste of bandwidth there.
