Parse error:syntax error

[fatmess]

Hi,
beginner question,
I get the following error,
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in bla bla bla on line 6

when I run the following W3schools code,

<?php
$q=$_GET["q"];$xmlDoc = new DOMDocument();
$xmlDoc->load("cd_catalog.xml");$x=$xmlDoc->getElementsByTagName('ARTIST');for ($i=0; $i<=$x->length-1; $i++)
{
//Process only element nodes
if ($x->item($i)->nodeType==1)
  {
  if ($x->item($i)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue == $q)
    { 
    $y=($x->item($i)->parentNode);
    }
  }
}$cd=($y->childNodes);for ($i=0;$i<$cd->length;$i++)
{ 
//Process only element nodes
if ($cd->item($i)->nodeType==1)
  { 
  echo($cd->item($i)->nodeName);
  echo(": ");
  echo($cd->item($i)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue);
  echo("<br />");
  } 
}
?>

Thanks for any help in resolving this!

This really has nothing to do with Ajax, should have been asked in the php forum.

Have you searched the forum? http://www.codingforums.com/result.h...BJECT_OPERATOR
