UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.threads 7 Version 7 Support Parse error: syntax error

Hi, Hopefully i have this post in right area.. After the problems the other day (thanks again for ian and ricks help), the client has asked us to make a few changes. I get this error when trying to make changes to the script. Any suggestions? This is with version 7.0.2

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_SL in /home/public_html/board/cache_builders/custom/portal_box_1.php on line 5

it is going to be connected with the code used for the first portal box.

You might like to post that code, so that we can take a look as without that we are working blind

k. Sorry..

If i go into Admin CP... Display Options > General and make any changes there, i get that error..

As to our portal box. What i was doing shouldn't effect that, but maybe it does

Here is the code for our custom portal box which is used as adspace. We use this same code on a few diff related boards..

/* PHP CODE HERE */


/* BODY HERE */
$body = <<<EOF<div align="center">
<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='http://mickmars.tv/phpAdsNew/adx.js'></script>
<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>
<!--
if (!document.phpAds_used) document.phpAds_used = ',';
phpAds_random = new String (Math.random()); phpAds_random = phpAds_random.substring(2,11);


document.write ("<" + "script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='");
document.write ("http://mickmars.tv/phpAdsNew/adjs.php?n=" + phpAds_random);
document.write ("&what=zone:1&source=store&target=_blank&withText=1");
document.write ("&exclude=" + document.phpAds_used);
if (document.referrer)
document.write ("&referer=" + escape(document.referrer));
document.write ("'><" + "/script>");

EOF;

$body = <<<EOF<div align="center"> is the problem.

Split them into two lines...

that did it.. Thanks Darv! hmm, i wonder if its like that on our other UBB forums.. will have to look into that..

thanks again

Other sites seem to be ok! thanks again for the help..

Since that error is resolved. I now need to move on changing to a diff theme/style..I have looked around but havent found a direct tutorial for doing that... I found a couple of style downloads that look like it might work for our forum, again for version 7.0.2 Any suggestions on that or should i start a new topic?

thanks

A new topic - for sure
