Missing Code

[ben harry]

Some how I have managed to delete a bit of a line of code in tpl_index_categories.php im getting this error message when I try to go into category pages. Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/bodykits/public_html/shop/includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_index_categories.php on line 35

I believe this is line 35 <div id="indexCategoriesMainContent" class="content"><?php>

Can anyone see an obvious bit of missing code.

Thanks

Hopefully someone can spot the error.

Frequently when you see an error referencing a line number, the problem is on the previous line, and the referenced line is what finds the error.

<?php if (DEFINE_MAIN_PAGE_STATUS >= 1 and DEFINE_MAIN_PAGE_STATUS
<div id="indexCategoriesMainContent" class="content"><?php
<= 2) { ?>
/**
* require the html_define for the index/categories page
*/

A stock copy looks like this:

<?php if (DEFINE_MAIN_PAGE_STATUS >= 1 and DEFINE_MAIN_PAGE_STATUS <= 2) { ?>
<div id="indexCategoriesMainContent" class="content"><?php
/**
 * require the html_define for the index/categories page
 */

This is a good example of why you should never touch files while they are in /template_default/, but copy them to /your_template/ for editing. You would still have your own backup handy.

Thanks for replying, and spending the time to put the stock file in for me. I made the changes and all is working fine now.

Thank you
