Aparently, it's displaying your index.php as text when you navigate to it. There is some invalid code in it then. Maybe consider undoing all the changes that you did to your index.php or uploading a backup if you have one.

 

[WeeRowan]

Ok ill try un editing the index code.. but i dont have a backup i dont think.. is everyones index.php the same stuff init so i could use a template of someones?

 

[WeeRowan]

Ok i edited all the stuff i edited before and this is wat im getting now:


Parse error: parse error, unexpected ';', expecting ')' in /home/sr2005/public_html/forums/index.php on line 151


Can anyone help me fix this as i really want my forum back up

 

[Jordan K]

Goto line 151 of your index.php and change the ; to a )

*Edit: Or it could be that the end of your line has a ; and not a ), in that case you should add an ) before the ; so the end of the line looks like this:

);

 

[WeeRowan]

$ipsclass->input['_low_act'] = strtolower( $ipsclass->input['act'] );

thats the 150 line... so is there anything not right with that.. ??

also m8.. see wen on Word.. is there a quick way to find a certain line without counting?

 

[Jordan K]

You can't use Word to find the line of your php code. The formatting in word presses the lines to be smaller and take up more than one line, ultimately displaying the wrong code for the error you are getting. You have to use a php editor. Such as Dreamweaver or DzSoft PHP Editor (my two favorite choices).

 

[WeeRowan]

ok i gt it in PHP Editor.. heres line 150:

$ipsclass->input['_low_act'] = strtolower( $ipsclass->input['act'] );

 

[WeeRowan]

m8 i changed line 150 to:

$ipsclass->input['_low_act'] = strtolower( $ipsclass->input['act'])

and now when i load the forum it says:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_IF, expecting ')' in /home/sr2005/public_html/forums/index.php on line 152


Does this mean i edited 150 right but another line needs fixed? or that its wrong?

Copy and paste from line 135/140 through 155/160 for us.

Also, Civilr, good job knowing what could be causing the error, almost "dead on". I take it you know PHP a decent amount?

$ipsclass->input['_low_act'] = strtolower( $ipsclass->input['act']

 $ipsclass->input['act'] = "sf";
 $ipsclass->input['f']   = intval($ipsclass->input['showforum'])

[Bryon]

Noooooo haha I meant lines anywheres from 135 (or up to 140..) to lines 155 (or up to 160).

Sorrry for the confusion.

Try that.

Ok i pasted that in and uploaded it and this came up:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected ';', expecting ')' in /home/sr2005/public_html/forums/index.php on line 150

Any ideas how to fix this m8.. ?? i could really use your help and you seem to know what to do

 

[Jordan K]

Somewhat, still teaching myself though. I am mostly good at editing them and problem solving. I hope to one day be one of the people that can make scripts from scratch. Like one of those online roleplaying games. (I forget what it's called buy you make an account and you can choose either a modster, a rockstar, or a monster as your character and you recruit people. Lol I know the name of it I just can't remember, it's on the tip of my tongue)

 

[WeeRowan]

Ye u r good at it m8.. so you like problem solving.. can you help solve mine lol

 

[Jordan K]

Yeah, what version of IPB are you using?

 

[WeeRowan]

Ipb 2.1.3
