I’ve created a code to change a password. Now it seem contain an error.before i fill the form.
the page display the error message:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected
$end in C:\Program
Files\xampp\htdocs\e-Complaint(FYP)\userChangePass.php
on line 222

this the code:

<?php # userChangePass.php
//this page allows logged in user to change their password.

$page_title='Change Your Password';

//if no first_name variable exists, redirect the user
if(!isset($_SESSION['nameuser'])){

    header("Location: http://" .$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']. dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])."/index.php");
    ob_end_clean();
    exit();

}else{

    if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {//handle form.
        require_once('connectioncomplaint.php'); //connec to the database

        //check for a new password and match againts the confirmed password.
        if(eregi ("^[[:alnum:]]{4,20}$", stripslashes(trim($_POST['password1'])))){
            if($_POST['password1'] == $_POST['password2']){
                $p =escape_data($_POST['password1']);
            }else{
                $p=FALSE;
                echo'<p><font color="red" size="+1"> Your password did not match the confirmed password!</font></p>';
            }
        }else{
            $p=FALSE;
            echo'<p><font color="red" size="+1"> Please Enter a valid password!</font></p>';
        }

        if($p){ //if everything OK.

            //make the query
            $query="UPDATE access SET password=PASSWORD('$p') WHERE userid={$_SESSION['userid']}";
            $result=@mysql_query($query);//run the query.
            if(mysql_affected_rows() == 1) {//if it run ok.

                //send an email,if desired.
                echo '<p><b>your password has been changed.</b></p>';
                //include('templates/footer.inc');//include the HTML footer.
                exit();

            }else{//if it did not run ok

            $message= '<p>Your password could not be change due to a system error.We apolpgize for any inconvenience.</p><p>' .mysql_error() .'</p>';

            }
            mysql_close();//close the database connection.

            }else{//failed the validation test.
                echo '<p><font color="red" size="+1"> Please try again.</font></p>';
            }
        }//end of the main Submit conditional.
    ?>

And code for form:

<h1>Change Your Password</h1>
      <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post">
      <fieldset>
      <p><b>New Password:</b><input type="password" name="password1" size="20" maxlength="20" />
      <small>Use only letters and numbers.Must be between 4 and 20 characters long.</small></p>
      <p><b>Confirm New Password:</b><input type="password" name="password2" size="20" maxlength="20" /></p>
      </fieldset>
      <div align="center"> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Change My Password" /></div>

</form><!--End Form-->

    I think you’re missing a } on one of your conditions just before the ?>.

    Correctly indenting your code will make these easier to spot.

    Edit:

    As I suspeced, add a } on the 2nd to last line, like this:

    <?php # userChangePass.php
    //this page allows logged in user to change their password.
    
    $page_title='Change Your Password';
    
    //if no first_name variable exists, redirect the user
    if(!isset($_SESSION['nameuser'])){
    
        header("Location: http://" .$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']. dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])."/index.php");
        ob_end_clean();
        exit();
    
    }else{
    
        if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {//handle form.
            require_once('connectioncomplaint.php'); //connec to the database
    
            //check for a new password and match againts the confirmed password.
            if(eregi ("^[[:alnum:]]{4,20}$", stripslashes(trim($_POST['password1'])))){
                if($_POST['password1'] == $_POST['password2']){
                    $p =escape_data($_POST['password1']);
                }else{
                    $p=FALSE;
                    echo'<p><font color="red" size="+1"> Your password did not match the confirmed password!</font></p>';
                }
            }else{
                $p=FALSE;
                echo'<p><font color="red" size="+1"> Please Enter a valid password!</font></p>';
            }
    
            if($p){ //if everything OK.
    
                //make the query
                $query="UPDATE access SET password=PASSWORD('$p') WHERE userid={$_SESSION['userid']}";
                $result=@mysql_query($query);//run the query.
                if(mysql_affected_rows() == 1) {//if it run ok.
    
                    //send an email,if desired.
                    echo '<p><b>your password has been changed.</b></p>';
                    //include('templates/footer.inc');//include the HTML footer.
                    exit();
    
                }else{//if it did not run ok
    
                $message= '<p>Your password could not be change due to a system error.We apolpgize for any inconvenience.</p><p>' .mysql_error() .'</p>';
    
                }
                mysql_close();//close the database connection.
    
                }else{//failed the validation test.
                    echo '<p><font color="red" size="+1"> Please try again.</font></p>';
                }
            }//end of the main Submit conditional.
        }
        ?>
