Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_SL PHP heredoc
I keep getting the following error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_SL in /home/a4999406/public_html/willingLog.html on line 70
on the following code (first line is line 70):
echo <<<END
<form action = "willingLog.html" method="post"><pre>
First <input type="text" name="first" />
Last <input type="text" name="last" />
Email <input type="text" name="email" />
Username <input type="text" name="user_name" />
<input type="submit" value="AD RECORD" />
</pre></form>
END;
heredoc just doesn't seem to work. i've tried other examples.
following is by doctype heading. is there something wrong there?
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
Answer
Looking at the copy-paste, it looks like you have a space character after the word "END" on the first line:
'echo <<<END '
Try getting rid of the space character. Answer found by Googling. Source (link now dead): http://www.alexxoid.com/blog/dev/php-dev/php-parse-error-unexpected-t_sl.html
