I am trying to install a new theme "fashionable" by themebell and having errors installing the theme. The particular section with the error is add_shortcode('vimeo', 'insertVimeo'); function insertVimeo($attr) { // set dimensions $width = 520; $height = 400; // get the url $src = $attr['src']; // get the video ID $video_code = substr($src,strrpos($src,'/')+1,strlen($src)); // set the movie params value $src = 'http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id='.$video_code.'&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1'; // set the object $video = '<script type="text/javascript"> AC_AX_RunContent( ''width','\'.$width.\'','height','\'.$height.\'','src','\'.$src.\'','wmode','transparent','type','application/x-shockwave-flash','allowfullscreen','true','allowscriptaccess','always','movie','\'.$src.\''' ); //end AC code </script><noscript><object width="'.$width.'" height="'.$height.'"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="movie" value="'.$src.'" /><embed src="'.$src.'" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="'.$width.'" height="'.$height.'"></embed></object></noscript>'; // display the object return $video; } PHP: I get the error in thr AC_AX_Run... line which is line Removing this section completely gives me 10+ errors compared to the single error now. I am new to PhP and would appreciate it if someone could guide me through this
try it like this add_shortcode('vimeo', 'insertVimeo'); function insertVimeo($attr) { // set dimensions $width = 520; $height = 400; // get the url $src = $attr['src']; // get the video ID $video_code = substr($src,strrpos($src,'/')+1,strlen($src)); // set the movie params value $src = 'http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id='.$video_code.'&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1'; // set the object $video = "<script type='text/javascript'> AC_AX_RunContent( 'width','{$width}','height','{$height}','src','{$src}','wmode','transparent','type','application/x-shockwave-flash','allowfullscreen','true','allowscriptaccess','always','movie','{$src}' ); //end AC code </script> <noscript> <object width='{$width}' height='{$height}'><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /> <param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always' /> <param name='movie' value='{$src}' /> <embed src='{$src}' wmode='transparent' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' allowscriptaccess='always' width='{$width}' height='{$height}'></embed> </object> </noscript>"; // display the object return $video; } PHP: but really, it just seems that the escaping of the single quotes got mangled. This version should be safer.
