Help! This error is driving me crazy!

fowlerlfc · Jul 25, 2002

When using an include file of functions, I get the following error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /usr/local/apache_1.3.20/htdocs/dev/functions.php on line 195

In my include file there is not line 195! My closing php bracket is on line 186! I have no clue to fix this, any ideas?

Here's my include file:

<?
//display functions

function pageheaders($title)

echo "<head><title>$title</title>";
echo "<style type=\"text/css\">";
echo "<!--";
echo "body {";

echo "background-color : #FFFFFF;";
echo "background-image : url(\"gbg.gif\&quot

;";
echo "background-repeat : no-repeat;";
echo "}";
echo "-->";
echo "</style></head><body>";
}

function userheaders($title, $redirect, $time)
{
echo "<head><title>$title</title>";
echo "<style type=\"text/css\">";
echo "<!--";
echo "body {";
echo "background-attachment : scroll;";
echo "background-color : #FFFFFF;";

The error is in the functions.php file.

Is this code in the functions.php file? Anikin
