lose the 50
at line 51

the error would show immediately in a code aware editor, like notepad++ notepad2
or if you had typed your code in tags here,

change whatever editor you are using is going to make life easier[code=php] tags here,

change whatever editor you are using is going to make life easier

oh yeah the 50 was when i was counting (thats kinda weird that when i paste the code in here it creats extra spaces) i forgot to take that out before i pasted this. and alright ill cheack out that version of notepad

whats the diffrence between binary files and scorce code?

wow that was a brain fart the thing i missed was a colon i feel bad for even posting this well wee all know the solution is in this it is to get a proper texteditor thank you guys
