Question

So I'm getting an error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in C:\xampp\htdocs\CWoW\add.php on line 97 in my code. 

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>

    </head>
    <body>
    <?php
    if(isset($_POST['add']))
    {
    $dbhost = 'localhost:3306';
    $dbuser = 'root';
    $dbpass = '';
    $mysqli = new mysqli('localhost','root','','meh') or die("Error " . mysqli_error($mysqli));


    if(empty($_POST['title'])) {
    echo 'The title must not be empty!<br/>';
    } else if(empty($_POST['message'])) {
    echo 'The message field must not be empty!<br/>';
    } else if(empty($_POST['author'])) {
    echo 'A poster name is required!<br/>';
    } else {
    if(! get_magic_quotes_gpc() )
    {
    $title = addslashes ($_POST['title']);
    $message = addslashes ($_POST['message']);
    $author = addslashes ($_POST['author']);
    }
    else
    {
    $title = $_POST['title'];
    $message = $_POST['message'];
    $author = $_POST['author'];
    }

    if ($query = $mysqli->query("INSERT INTO etl_articles (title, message, author) VALUES ('{$title}', '{$message}', '{$author}');")) {
    echo "The post has successfully been added! <a href='add.php'>Click Here</a> to go back.";

    } else {
    echo 'Failed to add the post!';
    $query->close;
    }
    }
    }
    else
    {
    ?>

    </div>
            </aside>
            <div class="clear"></div>
        </div>
        </form>

    </footer>
    </section>
    </body>
    </html>

I can't seem to find the problem really. If any of you guys can help me that would be great.

Solution

You have a syntax error in your code : there is an opening brace { after else statement but the closing } is missing.

Replace

else
{
?>

with 

else;
?>

or

else{}
?>
