As I said, get one. There are loads of free editors for all operating systems
that do syntax highlighting for PHP. Get one, load the file up in that and have
a look.

Are you using an editor that does syntax highlighting? If not, find one and
load up the file. If you have an unterminated string or similar error, the
highlighting should tell you where that problem is.

It's more likely an unterminated quoted string.
It looks like PHP is giving up after finding unrecognizable stuff after either
the first double or single quote on that line. If you're using an editor that
doesn't do syntax high lighting, get one.
Ken
I would suggest that you figure out what is the value of the variable your
passing into your query is it possible that the value is getting a '
character, in which case it would be crapping out the line...
For now, try adding [addslashes]:
$termnum10=addslashes(substr($dest, $start_from_which_offset,10));
$alias_sql_stmt="SELECT ani FROM ldrates WHERE ani='$termnum10'";//
<-this is line 1050

My suspicion is that there's is an unmatched curly brace earlier in the
file. With this type of error, you'll generally get a report of a bad line
further down the file--sometimes way down--because the parser can't
recognize until it hits the later point that something is wrong. Try
double-checking that the {} blocks prior to line 1050 properly balance,
and you'll probably find there's an extra one, or that one is missing, etc.

My suspicion is that there's is an unmatched curly brace earlier in the
file. With this type of error, you'll generally get a report of a bad line
further down the file--sometimes way down--because the parser can't
recognize until it hits the later point that something is wrong. Try
double-checking that the {Š} blocks prior to line 1050 properly balance,
and you'll probably find there's an extra one, or that one is missing, etc.
If nothing else, just start stripping code from the file until you find
the line that's actually at fault. If you do this in a binary search
fashion, it won't take more than a few minutes.

Bob

There is nothing wrong with the code you've posted...
stuart@willow:~$ php -l test.php
No syntax errors detected in test.php
Which means the error is likely above that in the file.
