Parse error-reinstalled and still have it

[BALCO]

Hello,

Brand new to Zen cart and so far I love it. It is certainly a learning experience. I installed the Debug Error Logging Utility after half of my page stopped appearing. It keeps telling me the following:

[08-Jan-2008 16:20:51] PHP Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /homepages/12/d225534588/htdocs/includes/modules/sideboxes/information.php on line 60

I cannot figure out where the error is. Any help is greatly appreciated as I am just sick thinking about having to scratch all that I have done and start over. I am hoping this is the only problem I am having.

Thanks to anyone that can help me shed some light on this!

You edited the file and added something on line 14 or removed something from lines 15 and 16.

You left this:

  if (DEFINE_ORDER_STATUS <= 1) {

But, you left a syntax problem ... an open condition with no close.
Hence the error.

Thank you so much! File fixed and my sight is back up. You saved a lot of heartburn for me tonight. I can't thank you enough!!
