Basic Syntax Problem

[gorilla1]

Why does the following generate a parse error?

<?
if ($subpaytype1 != "") { ($subpaytype = 1)};

?>

I guess it's the second brackets, use

<?
if ($subpaytype1 != "") {
$subpaytype = 1;
}

?>
Might also be that you used the semi-colon after the closing curly bracket

[mordred]

Statements *must* be ended with a semi-colon; you missed one after asigning the value to the variable:


if ($subpaytype1 != "") { ($subpaytype = 1);};

Thanks, Nightfire, yes, that does it!
