Trying to figure out which file is returning the error



De.scription and Message

Hi,

Just basically trying to tweak out some errors in my site.

When i view a thread, it takes a little bit of time to pull up, it comes up, but IE returns an error:

Line: 732
Char: 42
Error: Expected ';'
Code: 0
URL: http://www.falloutzone.net/foz/viewtopi ... 0528#60528

now, here is a piece of my viewtopic.php file... it can't be line 732, because it's not long enough to have a character 42 and it's the line with only //

Code: Select all

 $select_post_days = '<select>';for($i = 0; $i < count($previous_days); $i++){     $selected = ($post_days == $previous_days[$i]) ? ' selected="selected"' ] . '"' . $selected . '>' . $previous_days_text[$i] . '</option>';}$select_post_days .= '</select>';  //// Decide how to order the post display[color=red]//[/color]if ( !empty($HTTP_POST_VARS['postorder']) || !empty($HTTP_GET_VARS['postorder']) ){    $post_order = (!empty($HTTP_POST_VARS['postorder'])) ? htmlspecialchars($HTTP_POST_VARS['postorder']) ]);    $post_time_order = ($post_order == "asc") ? "ASC" : "DESC";}else{    $post_order = 'asc';    $post_time_order = 'ASC';}  

Is it possible it's either a different line that's missing the ; or on a different page... when you click on the thread title to view posts, what other files are involved??

I compared my current viewtopic.php with the one from 140, and i don't see any difference in that area, which is why I think it's in another file

[Helter]

the thread title goes to viewtopic, which also calls

extension.inc
common.php
includes/bbcode.php
includes/functions_post.php
includes/functions_bookmark.php
includes/def_icons - reupload this and chmod to 666
includes/functions_calendar.php
profilcp/functions_profile.php

[zenrei]

ok.. uploaded and chmodded to 666 and i still get the error

and i went through every file and looked in that general area and it looks to my untrained eye that every finished line ends with a ;

so i'm stumped.

[Helter]

the ";" is missing. try reuploading all these files. Its possible that one was damaged during the first upload

[zenrei]

ok... yesterday i did a fresh install and a step by step mod reinstall, and the error is from the shop mod 2.6.0

it's the 2nd have of the viewtopic modification that's doing it... I'm going to be attempting an upgrade to the newer version (i was planning on doing that anyway) and seeing if the upgrade corrects it.

[zenrei]

is there a program out there that tests codes for errors? I just can't find the problem <img>

[Helter]

can you post a link to the newer version your trying to install?

[Frost]

You could try showing your possibly corrupted file here for us to look at, meanwhile I would suggest taking a look at some online php code testers.

Try this:

Edit: Oops sorry Helter <img>

[zenrei]

i tried that link, nothing comes up in the exectution box, i tried IE and Mozilla

I'm starting to think the error in the code has gained conciousness and is purposely thwarting my efforts in the hopes to survive.

[zenrei]

ok. i'm not going to sweat this anymore.

i took the following code out of viewtopic.php

Code: Select all

      $usernameurl = append_sid("shop.".$phpEx."?action=inventory&searchid=".$postrow[$i]['user_id']);       $usereffects = explode("ÃÅÂ ¸", $postrow[$i]['user_effects']);     $userprivs = explode("ÃÅÂ ¸", $postrow[$i]['user_privs']);     $usercustitle = explode("ÃÅÂ ¸", $postrow[$i]['user_custitle']);     $userbs = array();     $usercount = count($userprivs);     for ($x = 0; $x < $usercount; $x++) { $temppriv = explode("ÃÅÂ ¾", $userprivs[$x]); $userbs[] = $temppriv[0]; $userbs[] = $temppriv[1]; }     $usercount = count($usereffects);     for ($x = 0; $x < $usercount; $x++) { $temppriv = explode("ÃÅÂ ¾", $usereffects[$x]); $userbs[] = $temppriv[0]; $userbs[] = $temppriv[1]; }     $usercount = count($usercustitle);     for ($x = 0; $x < $usercount; $x++) { $temppriv = explode("ÃÅÂ ¾", $usercustitle[$x]); $userbs[] = $temppriv[0]; $userbs[] = $temppriv[1]; }     $shoparray = explode("ÃÅÂ ¸", $board_config['specialshop']);     $shoparraycount = count ($shoparray);     $shopstatarray = array();     for ($x = 0; $x < $shoparraycount; $x++)     {         $temparray = explode("ÃÅÂ ¾", $shoparray[$x]);         $shopstatarray[] = $temparray[0];         $shopstatarray[] = $temparray[1];     }     if ((($userbs[12] == on) && ($shopstatarray[14] == on)) || (($userbs[14] == on) && ($shopstataray[16] = on))) {         $nameeffects = "<span>'.$poster.'</span>';         $poster = $nameeffects;     }     if (($shopstatarray[6] == on) && ($userbs[2] != on) && ($poster_rank != "Site Admin")) { $poster_avatar = ""; }     if (($shopstatarray[8] == on) && ($userbs[4] != on) && ($poster_rank != "Site Admin")) { $user_sig = ""; }     if (($shopstatarray[10] == on) && ($userbs[6] != on) && ($poster_rank != "Site Admin")) { $poster_rank = "None"; $rank_image = ""; }

It doesn't seem to effect the shop mod at all... effects still come up, and so do the items... so removed it an all is well with the world again.
