Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php You can only have static array initializations, concatting to a string like you do is not supported. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-05 20:12:21] johfivealive at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ I think this should not be a parse error, this should work. It seems the concatenation of LOGIK_CONFIG_FILE to the string: "<span class=\"error\"><strong></strong> couldn't be opened for reading.<br />Check file permissions.</span>" is causing the parse error. Reproduce code: --------------- define( "LOGIK_DIRECTORY", $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . "/" ); define( "LOGIK_CONFIG_DIRECTORY", "config/" ); define( "LOGIK_CONFIG_FILE", LOGIK_DIRECTORY . LOGIK_CONFIG_DIRECTORY . "logikconfig.xml" ); define( "LOGIK_CONFIG_FILE_FOPEN_ERROR", 3 ); static $errors = array( LOGIK_CONFIG_FILE_FOPEN_ERROR => "<span class=\"error\"><strong>" . LOGIK_CONFIG_FILE . "</strong> couldn't be opened for reading.<br />Check file permissions.</span>" ); The above array() creation syntax is what throws the parse error. Expected result: ---------------- This shouldn't be a parse error because it is valid string concatenation syntax. Actual result: -------------- PHP reprts the following error: Parse error: parse error, unexpected '.', expecting ')' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29021&edit=1
