Question

Not sure whats wrong here the error report says line 9, but when I look the code does not match.

The Error Message :
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ‘{‘ in /home/hletf/public_html/mailform.php on line 9

Forgive the Tables Please.

HTML FORM CODE :

    <form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="mailform.php">

   <table width="90%" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2">
     <tr>
       <td width="48%"><div align="right"><h3>Name:</h3></div></td>
       <td width="52%"><input type="text" name="NAME" id="NAME" /></td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <td><div align="right"><h3>Email:</h3></div></td>
       <td><input type="text" name="EMAIL" id="EMAIL" /></td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <td><div align="right"><h3>Comment:</h3></div></td>
       <td><textarea name="COMMENT" id="COMMENT" cols="45" rows="5"></textarea></td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <td><div align="right"></div></td>
       <td>
       <input type="image" name="SUBMIT" id="SUBMIT" src="images/submit_button.jpg" width="81" height="23" />
       </td>
     </tr>
   </table>

Change your function with this one :

function DoStripSlashes($fieldValue){
    // temporary fix for PHP6 compatibility - magic quotes deprecated in PHP6
    if ( function_exists( 'get_magic_quotes_gpc' ) && get_magic_quotes_gpc() ) { 
        if (is_array($fieldValue) ) { 
            return array_map('DoStripSlashes', $fieldValue); 
        } else { 
            return trim(stripslashes($fieldValue)); 
        } 
    } else { 
        return $fieldValue; 
    } 
}
