So I have the below code. When I run it in the computer I used for development it executes with no errors or warnings, but when i try to open it from a different computer it gives me a parse error. The error is the PHP code after the closing body tag.

The error am getting is Parse error: syntax error, unexpected end of file in the line

<?
    include("php/dbconnection.php");
    include("php/action.php");
    error_reporting(0);
    session_start();

    if(!$_SESSION['auth']) {
        session_unset();
        session_destroy();
        header('location:index.php');
    }
    else {
      $currentTime = time();      
      if($currentTime > $_SESSION['expire']) {
        session_unset();
        session_destroy();
        header('location: index.php');
      }
      else {
        $_SESSION['start'] = time();
        $_SESSION['expire'] = $_SESSION['start'] + (10 * 60);
?>

  • Please add the complete syntax error. It should tell the line number and filename. – Leroy May 23 '21 at 14:55
  • Why `` at the top and ` – AbraCadaver May 23 '21 at 14:56
  • First tip, don't use short tags like `` they may be not allowed in some configs, use ` – biesior May 23 '21 at 14:58

    And removed in PHP 8 – AbraCadaver May 23 '21 at 15:00
  • Excuse my late reply. After playing around with the php.ini config file I discovered that short tags option was given the value Off. After replacing it with On it now works. Thanks everyone. – Charles Venny Jun 03 '21 at 11:55
  • We tried to convince you, that you should replace all occurrences in your code instead of enabling this in your php.ini file for many reasons. In very short version: short tags generates problems and should be aboided. For more reading just google it or see [other questions like that](https://stackoverflow.com/a/200666/1066240). – biesior Jun 04 '21 at 11:37
