-Summary: Getting Parse error when trying to access page. I
believe it's related to mysql
Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Status: Bogus
Bug Type: MySQL related
Operating System: Mac OS 10.1.3 (Darwin 5.3)
PHP Version: 4.1.2
New Comment:
I didn't write this code. I copied it from an example which
is why I'm confused why it is not working.
I was curious if it would work for other people, because
maybe it's a problem with Darwin. Being that my version of
MySql is not the newest and I don't have a full version of
Apache.

This is the error I get when I try to accecss the page:
"Parse error: parse error in /Library/WebServer/Documents/
timemanagement/billing.php on line 2"
When I moved the "$db = mysql_connect..." line (whether up
or down) the line error changes accordingly. I have another
page with a similar beginning and it is getting the same
error.
Code from billing.php:
<?php
$db = mysql_connect ("localhost", "user", "password");
mysql_select_db ("database", $db);
if ($submit) {
if ($clientsubmit) {
$sql = "
INSERT INTO client (client)
VALUES ('$newclient')
";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
} else if ($submitbill) {
$sql = "
INSERT INTO billing (employee, client, job_
type, time_spent, billable, description, wage)
VALUES ('$employee', '$client', '$jobtype',
'$timespent', '$billable', '$desc', '$wage')
";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
echo "Thank you for your entry, <a href=
'billing.php?employee=$employee'>click here</
a> to enter another.</a>";
exit;
}
?>

Please give a SHORTER example of the code which doesn't work.
Anyway, if that's the file billing.php, then the line 2 would be the
empty one ...
