Question

This code:

    $current_user = get_currentuseinfo();
foreach ($alleds as $ed) {
    $checked = (in_array($ed->ID,(array)$currenteds)) ? ' checked="checked"' : '';
    $disabled = (!current_user_can('administrator') && $current_user->ID !== $ed->ID) ? ' disabled="disabled" : '';
    echo '<input type="checkbox" name="currenteds[]" value="' . $ed->ID . '"' .$checked . '" '.$disabled.' /><label for="ratings[]">'.$ed->user_nicename.'</label>';
}

Is giving me this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING

Now, I have been trying to wrap my head into why I am receiving this error but I cannot figure it out. The issue may be on the echo line. Do you know what the issue is and how I fix it?

Answer 1

You are missing a closing single quote:

$disabled = (!current_user_can('administrator') && $current_user->ID !== $ed->ID) ? ' disabled="disabled" : '';

should be:

$disabled = (!current_user_can('administrator') && $current_user->ID !== $ed->ID) ? ' disabled="disabled"' : '';

Look at the syntax highlighting in your question, or your editor, and it should pop out for you.
