    check index.php in your current theme and fix the error in the line 220. You can use notepad++ to see the line

    I already did that, and I posted the lines 219 through 220 and I can't see the error. Was hoping that someone else could.

    The lines that you have posted don't make any sense.. May be its a wordpress thing that I don't know about..
    It certainly doesn't make any sense PHP wise..

    219 <?php
[COLOR=#ff0000]220 }  http://www.....com/wp-admin/theme-editor.php?file=/home/.../public_html/wp-content/themes/mimbopro/index.php&         theme=Mimbo+Pro&a=te&scrollto=3839
221 }[/COLOR]
222 ?>
    Code (markup):
    Where on earth have you seen a syntax like that ? Get rid of the given section and everything ( from what you have shared ) will be ok.

    I really didn't make any sense. If the address is a variable, you didn't close it (with ;) and assign it to anything. If you want it to be display on screen as a link, you didn't close the php tag either. What are you trying to do?

    Post the code from the { (the one before line 219) so we can see why there's raw T_STRING in your PHP.

    It looks like a construct such as

    <?php
    blah blah
    if (something) {
    ?>
    some non-PHP code
    <?php
    } else {
    <something else here, maybe a header, or a variable being set to the text starting with 'http:'>

    But what you posted is a syntax error. (Unless it's in the middle of a heredoc, maybe.)
