This is very weird. What are you using to create this code? If you remove all of the spaces (?) before $query, the code doesn't give a parse error. It shouldn't give one either way, though, if those are spaces or a tab before your $query = ... line.
Even if you remove all of the text and only leave <?, ?>, and those "spaces", PHP will spit something like: Notice: Use of undefined constant - assumed ' ' in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\test.php on line 3 So, the fix is to remove those characters and replace them with spaces or tabs. ---John W.
