I was attempting to set up a custom header into my Gallery
http://birdmarks.com/coppermineI went to your FAQ's and found the one with the proper syntax to make a custom header> I copied this code directly from your FAQ.
<?php
echo <<<EOT
Enter your header/footer content here. What you enter here will be displayedat the top of my page if it is a header and at the bottom of my page if it is a footer.
EOT;
?>
I pasted this code into a text editor and I substituted the material I wanted displayed in the header into this file and saved it as custom_header.php. Here is the code I ended up with:
<?php
echo <<<EOT
<table border="0" width="480" height="124">
<tr>
<td align="center"><font size="5"><b><font color="#00FF00">
<img border="0" src="
http://www.birdmarks.com/coppermine/themes/natsel/images/headermerged.jpg" width="750" height="90"><br>
Natural
Selection<sup>®</sup></font></b><sup><font size="5" color="#00FF00"> </font></sup><font color="#FF9900"><b>Nature
Photography </b></font></td>
</tr>
</table>
EOT;
?>
I uploaded this file into my coppermine root directory
http://birdmarks.com/coppermineI went into my configuration panel and made the relative path to the file custom_header.php
I then tried to get into my gallery
http://birdmarks.com/coppermine to see if I had succeded. Well, I hadn't. Instead I was greeted with the following error message: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_SL in /home/content/b/i/r/birdmarks/html/coppermine/custom_header.php on line 2
But now I can't even get past this error message to get into my configuration panel in order to turn the custom header off.
I am certain that the problem lies within my custom_header.php file, but I don't know how to fix it. Can you please help me fix the custom_header.php file to not only let me get back into my gallery, but also to show the things i wanted to show in my header.
Thansk.
