This IS in the docuemtation, and clearly explained. See: http://www.php.net/variables Quote: | Variable names follow the same rules as other | labels in PHP. A valid variable name starts | with a letter or underscore, followed by any | number of letters, numbers, or underscores. >From the examples list on the same page: | $4site = 'not yet'; // invalid; starts with a number There is nothing more we can do about this IMHO. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-10-21 13:48:57] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is not a bug, but should be in the manual. Changing category. Derick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-10-21 13:32:07] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This error message is reported on your page : Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_VARIABLE' or `'$'' in ************** on line *** At first i thougt this was because i was "making" a 2 dimentional array or because i was doing somthing wrong in the query to MySQL but i found out the hard way that this was not the case. To reproduce this error is pretty easy, the only ting you have to do is this : <?php $2dAnim="All your base are belong to us."; ?> ... just this will trigger it, to fix this error just do : <?php $TwoDAnim="All your base are belong to us."; ?> Apparently if you have a digit as the first char in a variable you will get this error message. It would of been nice if i could have found some information about this, but instead i sat for "two" days trying to figure out how i screewd up the Multidimensional array or the Query.
