PHP:

 

i did that and its a blank page now. Atleast the error went away

 

yes same error

 

Pls give full page code. Is page extension .php or .html?

 

I seriuosly doubt that this is the right place for analytics code.

 

that is the whole page its the home page to my forums

huh?

 

Get rid of your analytics code and it will be fixed. DO NOT ?>. DO NOT PLACE YOUR CODE THERE.

 

Make sure you've uploaded the file in binary mode.

 

Are you just posting random spam to get your postcount up? This has nothing to do with it, he just posted HTML in the middle of a PHP file.

 

...Sorry that I misread the error? I thought I had read the error similar to:

Syntax error, unexpected '?'

Code (markup):

I'm well aware that you can't embed HTML directly in PHP, but I'm not spamming..

On a sidenote, thanks for letting me increase my post count by one..

 

that code just defines constants,variables and changing directory, don't function any process to screen.
I guess it's not the main page of your forum. it is like a settings page.
so just requesting this page will print a blank page..

 

I agree with mehmetm in saying that the file is a configuration page. It looks like something used as the index.php that defines all the basepaths, etc. You're going to want to put that javascript into the header of the vbadvanced template you're using.
