While trying to learn Php/MySQL from "Php 5/MySQL Programming for the absolute beginner" book, I copied the exact code and yet ran into error saying:
"Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\Calendar\Two\test.php on line 41"
Line 41 is a line AFTER </html>
I might be missing something?
Yes, a couple of things:
1) This list is for php install problems, not php coding problems.
2) You didn't include the source code for your test. We know this for two reasons.
2A) your error message indicates error on line 41 and the source code only has 25 lines.
2B) You mention line 41 contains </html>, but sample code does not contain this line.
That said, a php parse error commonly reports a line number to be one higher than last line of php code when it cannot determine more accurately where the error is.
