parse error, unexpected T_STRING?

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /home/content/t/u/l/tulumbo/html/browse.php on line 356

I am getting this warning on my website. I know this is probably very simple but I am a php newbie. Please help. Here is line 356:

public $status = 0; // HTTP status code

 

are you using php5 and inside a class?

 

yes and yes. thanks for the quick response.

class cURL {

# Debug data
# public $cookiesSent = array();
# public $cookies = array();
# public $posted = '';
# End debug
public $status = '0'; // HTTP status code
public $headers = array(); // Record headers for later use
public $error = false; // Hold cURL error
public $abort = false; // Our errors / reason for abortion
public $return; // Store the return
public $proxyOptions = array(); // Store our proxy browsing options
public $docType = 0; // Corresponding parser (from content type)
public $cacheName; // Name of cache file to save as (false for no cache)
public $fileHandle; // Handle for cache file
public $length = 0;
private $endHeaders = true; // Flag for end of headers, checked in readBody

public function __construct($toLoad,$curlOptions,$options,$cache) {
// Set proxy options
$this->proxyOptions = $options;
// And cache name
$this->cacheName = $cache;

# Debug
# $this->posted = isset($curlOptions[CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS]) ? $curlOptions[CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS] : '';
# $this->cookiesSent = isset($curlOptions[CURLOPT_COOKIE]) ? $curlOptions[CURLOPT_COOKIE] : array();
# End debug

// Set our callbacks
$curlOptions[CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION] = array(&$this,'readHeaders');
$curlOptions[CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION] = array(&$this,'readBody');

// Start curl handle
$tmp = curl_init($toLoad);

// Set our options
if ( function_exists('curl_setopt_array') )
curl_setopt_array($tmp,$curlOptions);
else
foreach ( $curlOptions as $option => $value )
curl_setopt($tmp,$option,$value);

// Get return
curl_exec($tmp);

// Close file handle
if ( $this->fileHandle ) {

fclose($this->fileHandle);
$this->fileHandle = false;

// Rename tmp to real name
rename(optCACHEPATH . 'tmp.'.$this->cacheName, optCACHEPATH.$this->cacheName);

}

// Record errors
$this->error = curl_error($tmp);

// Close cURL
curl_close($tmp);
}

 

What version of PHP are you using? If you're unsure, run this and see what you get:

<?php
echo phpversion();
?>

PHP:

If it's 4.x.x, then replace all "public"s (and "private" and "protected", if any) with "var".

If it's 5+.. then post your full code.

 

hmm, can you please post the entire code?

 

if it's 4.x.x, then replace all "public"s (and "private" and "protected", if any) with "var"

hmm, i think in php 4 that will give an error.

 

entire code is posted above ^^^^^

 

Try this. Should be PHP 4 compatible

class cURL {

# Debug data
# public $cookiesSent = array();
# public $cookies = array();
# public $posted = '';
# End debug
var $status = '0'; // HTTP status code
var $headers = array(); // Record headers for later use
var $error = false; // Hold cURL error
var $abort = false; // Our errors / reason for abortion
var $return; // Store the return
var $proxyOptions = array(); // Store our proxy browsing options
var $docType = 0; // Corresponding parser (from content type)
var $cacheName; // Name of cache file to save as (false for no cache)
var $fileHandle; // Handle for cache file
var $length = 0;
var $endHeaders = true; // Flag for end of headers, checked in readBody

function cURL($toLoad,$curlOptions,$options,$cache) {
// Set proxy options
$this->proxyOptions = $options;
// And cache name
$this->cacheName = $cache;

# Debug
# $this->posted = isset($curlOptions[CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS]) ? $curlOptions[CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS] : '';
# $this->cookiesSent = isset($curlOptions[CURLOPT_COOKIE]) ? $curlOptions[CURLOPT_COOKIE] : array();
# End debug

// Set our callbacks
$curlOptions[CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION] = array(&$this,'readHeaders');
$curlOptions[CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION] = array(&$this,'readBody');

// Start curl handle
$tmp = curl_init($toLoad);

// Set our options
if ( function_exists('curl_setopt_array') )
curl_setopt_array($tmp,$curlOptions);
else
foreach ( $curlOptions as $option => $value )
curl_setopt($tmp,$option,$value);

// Get return
curl_exec($tmp);

// Close file handle
if ( $this->fileHandle ) {

fclose($this->fileHandle);
$this->fileHandle = false;

// Rename tmp to real name
rename(optCACHEPATH . 'tmp.'.$this->cacheName, optCACHEPATH.$this->cacheName);

}

// Record errors
$this->error = curl_error($tmp);

// Close cURL
curl_close($tmp);
}

PHP:

 

sorry, i was using the quickpost

you seemed to be missing the closing } for the class

 

ok...i see that I have three { ......... but only two } so that makes sense. where am i missing the one }??

 

You are missing it at the very end.

 

If people just read the errors:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in

Parse errors only occur when something is in the wrong place or something is missing.

As the error above states, you are missing a } in your code, which it was expecting. Trace your code for the error.

Peace,

What did you edit exactly? look there..

 

I have not edited any code

 

So you just downloaded OsCommerce and it had errors? doesnt make sense ;S

 

I have had it downloaded for a while now and it keeps coming up with different parse errors.I fix one line of code and than the error moves to another line.

 

ok, download a fresh one, better

 

ok.thanks for your help
