Hey I know PHP but I am not really familiar with all the errors... Like I came across a error I did not know what it meant and I still don't know what it meant.. If some could post like some basic errors like this and what it means I would appreciate it...

Thanks, King

Most syntax errors are very basic typing mistakes: most often missing a semi-colon off of the end of the previous line of code, or not matching up your parenthesis pairs.

Salathe is right.

I never really come across any PHP errors such as these any more. However, when I used a simple application for programming, such as Notepad, these errors were commonplace.

Try using Zend Studio or something similar. They will point out the syntax errors before you even attempt to execute the script.

The error you have means it's come across a variable it wasn't expecting. You will have left out a ';'.

Read the error, it tells you exactly what's wrong.

Not always

That is because you have not properly investigated what the terms mean, but have simply defaulted to "I don't know what it means". Lets break this apart (all this information is available on Google)

Parse error: This means that it had a problem reading the code
syntax error, This means that the error lies within the grammatical structure of the program
unexpected T_VARIABLE this means that it found a variable when it did not expect one (IE when it is not allowed to be present).
in /home1/clubbink/public_html/changestatus.php on line 8 This provides the location where it ran into the error.

To basically, this message says that you placed a variable where it should not be on line eight. These errors are most commonly forgotten semi-colons, but can manifest themselves in forgetting or misplacing anything.

If that is not descriptive enough, I don't know what is.

Got this error last week to. What I had done was the following:

and that is how it should like:
The Token at the end may not have any tabs or spaces. -> So it didnt close the string - and gave that error to.
