CODE

<?php include ("header.php");

if ($action == construct)
{

mysql_query("Update players Set construction=yes where id=stat[id] ");
//a verification should be made if the player has the right amount of silver wood before making that query
//else you'll end up with - numbers..
mysql_query("Update players Set silver wood = $stat[silverwood]-10000 where stat[id] ");
mysql_query("Update players Set construction = stat[construction]+1 where stat[id] ");
print "</table><br>";
print "Or you can always... <a href=city.php>go back</a>.";
}
}
if ($stat[constructed] => 2)
{
$prices = mysql_query("select * from market");
$pa = mysql_fetch_array($prices);
$plat_price = $pa[ap];
if ($action != buy) {
print "Ap isn't always a stable-priced commodity... right now its $plat_price credits an ap. How much you want?";
print "<form method=post action=construction.php?action=buy>";
print "I want <input type=text name=plat> ap. <input type=submit value=Buy>";
print "</form>";
} else {
$plat = str_replace("--","", $plat);
$cost = ($plat * $plat_price);
if ($cost > $stat[credits] || $plat <= 0) {
print "You cant afford that! (<a href=pshop.php>back</a>)";
} else {
mysql_query("update players set credits=credits-$cost where id=$stat[id]");
mysql_query("update players set ap=ap+$plat where id=$stat[id]");
print "You got <b>$plat</b> ap for <b>$cost</b> credits.";
}
}

?>

<? include ("footer.php"); ?>

and the error is

QUOTE

Parse error: parse error, expecting `','' or `';'' in /home/www/dancha42.madpage.com/construction.php on line 7

if thes dont show up as quotes could a mod fix it please.

this is for a text based game so it may seem different. But it shouldnt matter since the parse error shouldnt interfer with it.

What you have currently:

CODE

if ($stat[construction] <= 1)
{
print 'Would you like to start the building';
echo "<a href="construction.php?action=construct">construct</a> ";
)

And what you might need to change is the last end parenthesis to a right-curly brace. Like this:

CODE

if ($stat[construction] <= 1)
{
print 'Would you like to start the building';
echo "<a href="construction.php?action=construct">construct</a> ";
}

This line:

CODE

echo "<a href="construction.php?action=construct">construct</a>";

should be:

CODE

echo '<a href="construction.php?action=construct">construct</a>';

or:

CODE

echo "<a href=\"construction.php?action=construct\">construct</a>";

PHP is going to execute anything within the " " or ' ' so in your case, it gets to the " after the href and then stops.

now i get this

i hate parse errors. im gonna try and figure it out myself but if you what to fix your suggestions are welcomed

doesnt fix the parse error but that is becuase it isnt on line 20 so you might have fixed a later parse error but i still need some help with the line 20 one

It might not like the whitespace and carriage return here:

CODE

if ($action == construct)
{
print "you have

Try this for the If statements:

CODE

if ($action == construct) {
print "you have

On line 2, the <br> tag doesnt work like that.

And for this:

QUOTE

if ($stat[construction] <= 1)
{
print 'Would you like to start the building';
echo "<a href=\"construction.php?action=construct\">construct</a> ";
)

I think the thing in bold is the problem. May want to change it to: }

ill try this out ty

i thought spaces dont matter in php
yeah i was right spaces dont matter cause i still get

Parse error: parse error in /home/www/dancha42.madpage.com/construction.php on line 19 (was 20 but then the space made it drop down one)

the error is around here

mysql_query("Update players Set silver wood = $stat[silverwood]-10000 where stat[id] ");
mysql_query("Update players Set construction = stat[construction]+1 where stat[id] ");
print "</table><br>";
print "Or you can always... <a href=city.php>go back</a>.";
}
}
if ($stat[constructed] >= 2)

but i dont see what is wrong (match this up with the code but it is around this area more specifically print "</table<br>";)

Sometimes an editor will plant invisible things in there. I happen to have an Editor which shows the carriage returns and tabs, etc so I thought maybe there was something out of place perhaps.

You have changed the code a little bit to fix some previous errors. Would you mind re-posting the code and please identify the error line for us. PHP is funny about parse errors. It identifies a line by number where it senses the error, but it might be several lines back that the actual cause exists.

if ($action == construct) {

Put quotes around construct, see if that helps. Cause unless construct is a constant, it would need quotes, i guess.

And if that doesnt help, have you tried echo, rather than, print?

with echo it doesnt work and with quotes it doesnt. Im getting so mad at this script. ARGGGH why wont it work.

Remove the period at the end of this line and see if that works. It might be trying to concatenate something there???
