What is the following doing?

<?php endif; ?>

You're closing a non existent if statement - based on the code you've given.

From the edit history it shows that the OP did not have that end if it shows that you are the one that put it there see [Your edit](http://stackoverflow.com/revisions/43864635/2) Against [OP's edit](http://stackoverflow.com/revisions/43864635/1) – Masivuye Cokile May 09 '17 at 08:37

@MasivuyeCokile Actually, if you look at the source of the original post - http://stackoverflow.com/revisions/73b2a8c0-598a-4cd9-b8d4-0eb7bd2604d4/view-source - you'll see that the `` is already there. I just formatted it correctly. – Tom May 09 '17 at 08:39

@MasivuyeCokile You've also therefore rolled back a completed fine edit. Do you know what you're doing? – Tom May 09 '17 at 08:40

You are missing semicolon in both of if statement

View

if ($exec == 'true'){
    echo '<script type="text/javascript">
    alert("email alreay exist");
    </script>';
}

Controller

if($exec) {
    true;
} else {
    FALSE;
}

Please replace your code as per above explanation. i hope it will work for you !

SIMPLE ANSWER. REMOVE THE <?php endif; ?> FROM YOUR CODE AND IT WORKS LIKE A CHARM. ALSO, ADD ; AT THE END OF echo STATEMENT

Why so shouty?? – Tom May 09 '17 at 08:55
All answers just focus on the `;` and useless things. They don't see the question asked by the OP and the error produced to OP – xXAlphaManXx May 09 '17 at 09:00
