i should ftp upload all the extracted from .zip file in ASCII mode ... is this right ?

[indigo77]

this is a part of my install.php file which seems to have the parse error..

the error should be somewhere here

Code: [Select]

function html_prereq_errors($error_msg)
{

    ?>
      <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" class="maintable">
       <tr>
            <form action="install.php">
        <td class="tableh1" colspan="2"><h2>Welcome to Coppermine installation</h2>
        </td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
        <td class="tableh2" colspan="2" align="center"><span class="error">&#149;&nbsp;&#149;&nbsp;&#149;&nbsp;ERROR&nbsp;&#149;&nbsp;&#149;&nbsp;&#149;</span>
        </td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
        <td class="tableb" colspan="2"> Before you continue with Coppermine installation, there are some problems that need to be fixed.<br /><br /><b><?php echo $error_msg ?></b>Once you are done, hit the "Try again" button.<br />
        </td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
        <td colspan="2" align="center"><br />
                <input type="submit" value="Try again !"><br /><br />
        </td>
                </form>
       </tr>
      </table>
<?php
}

specifically the exact line is 325 ...
line 325 is the closing of form tag just few lines before end of sub....

Code: [Select]

</form>
