Hello Can any PHP guys tell me what part of the code is generating the error " Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' in index.template.php on line 181"? I've looked through every part of this code, but I cannot see what is wrong with it Here is the code, begining on line 158 (It's an SMF template) function template_body_above() { global $context, $settings, $options, $scripturl, $txt, $modSettings; echo ' <!--- BEGIN MAIN SITE THINGY ---> <DIV id=wrapper> <DIV id=top></DIV> <DIV id=banner></DIV> <DIV id=clientlogin> <br><br><!-- http://www.LiveZilla.net Chat Button Link Code --><a href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/livezilla/livezilla.php?code=forums" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/livezilla/image.php?id=02" width="191" height="69" border="0" alt="LiveZilla Live Help" /></a><a href="http://www.livezilla.net"></a><!-- http://www.LiveZilla.net Chat Button Link Code --></DIV> <DIV id=nav><A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/index.html">Home</A> <A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/domains.html">Domains</A> <A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/shared.html">Shared</A> <A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/reseller.html">Reseller</A> <A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/services.html">Services</A> <A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/support.html">Support</A> <B><A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/order.html">Order</A></B> </DIV> <DIV id=welcome> // Display user name and time. if '($context['user']['is_logged'])' echo ' <li id="name">' $txt['hello_member_ndt'], ' ' $context['user']['name'] '</li>'; else echo ' <li id="name">' $txt['hello_guest'], ' ' $txt['guest'] '</li>'; echo ' // If the user is logged in, display stuff like their name, new messages, etc. if ($context['user']['is_logged']) { echo ' <li><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=unread">', $txt['unread_since_visit'], '</a></li> <li><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=unreadreplies">', $txt['show_unread_replies'], '</a></li>'; // Is the forum in maintenance mode? if ($context['in_maintenance'] && $context['user']['is_admin']) echo ' <li class="notice">', $txt['maintain_mode_on'], '</li>'; // Are there any members waiting for approval? if (!empty($context['unapproved_members'])) echo ' <li>', $context['unapproved_members'] == 1 ? $txt['approve_thereis'] : $txt['approve_thereare'], ' <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=admin;area=viewmembers;sa=browse;type=approve">', $context['unapproved_members'] == 1 ? $txt['approve_member'] : $context['unapproved_members'] .

It's your echo statements, they're messed up. When using echo to display text/variables/etc you have to connect each segment with a . Furthermore, your code isn't even using the ' and " properly. For example, you have this: echo ' <li id="name">' $txt['hello_member_ndt'], ' ' $context['user']['name'] '</li>'; PHP: When it should look like this: echo "<li id=\"name\">" . $txt['hello_member_ndt'] . ", " . $context['user']['name'] . "</li>"; PHP: That will fix your first echo statement, but all of them are broken. Use my example to fix all of your echo statements.
maybe this is what you want function template_body_above() { global $context, $settings, $options, $scripturl, $txt, $modSettings; echo ' <!--- BEGIN MAIN SITE THINGY ---> <DIV id=wrapper> <DIV id=top></DIV> <DIV id=banner></DIV> <DIV id=clientlogin> <br><br><!-- http://www.LiveZilla.net Chat Button Link Code --><a href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/livezilla/livezilla.php?code=forums" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/livezilla/image.php?id=02" width="191" height="69" border="0" alt="LiveZilla Live Help" /></a><a href="http://www.livezilla.net"></a><!-- http://www.LiveZilla.net Chat Button Link Code --></DIV> <DIV id=nav><A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/index.html">Home</A> <A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/domains.html">Domains</A> <A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/shared.html">Shared</A> <A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/reseller.html">Reseller</A> <A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/services.html">Services</A> <A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/support.html">Support</A> <B><A href="http://www.hostvoxeo.com/order.html">Order</A></B> </DIV> <DIV id=welcome>'; // Display user name and time. if ($context['user']['is_logged']) echo ' <li id="name">', $txt['hello_member_ndt'], ' ', $context['user']['name'], '</li>'; else echo ' <li id="name">', $txt['hello_guest'], ' ', $txt['guest'], '</li>'; // If the user is logged in, display stuff like their name, new messages, etc. if ($context['user']['is_logged']) { echo ' <li><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=unread">', $txt['unread_since_visit'], '</a></li> <li><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=unreadreplies">', $txt['show_unread_replies'], '</a></li>'; // Is the forum in maintenance mode? if ($context['in_maintenance'] && $context['user']['is_admin']) echo ' <li class="notice">', $txt['maintain_mode_on'], '</li>'; // Are there any members waiting for approval? if (!empty($context['unapproved_members'])) echo ' <li>', $context['unapproved_members'] == 1 ? $txt['approve_thereis'] : $txt['approve_thereare'], ' <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=admin;area=viewmembers;sa=browse;type=approve">', $context['unapproved_members'] == 1 ? $txt['approve_member'] : $context['unapproved_members'] .

Normally this error come when u miss any semicolon ; in your code So please check your code and check all semi colons. It is 99% sure that lack of semicolon produce such error
echo ' <li id="name">' $txt['hello_guest'], ' ' $txt['guest'] '</li>'; PHP: replace with echo ' <li id="name">' .$txt['hello_guest']. ' ' .$txt['guest']. '</li>'; PHP: and would be better
