Parse error, please help me...

Hi all,

I created my form but when I see it in fronted there is an error :

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '-', expecting '{' in /homez.145/akobaftp/www/components/com_chronocontact/chronocontact.php(45) : eval()'d code on line 3

I try to stop message error in Joomla configuration but the error is always here.


My file chronocontact.php :

Please help me I need this Form for this evening...

Best Regards.

Hi Skud,

one of your form fields names has "-" inside it and you created a table with one of the fields name has "-" and so this is causing that, first go to the DB connection tab and unselect that table and fix your field name then create a new table with all names don't have any "-"s then connect to this new table!

Cheers
Max

Thanks Max. All it's good.

😀

After upgrading to RC5.1 I get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function getPageParameters() on a non-object in chronoform.php on line 40

I have no "-" in the field names. this error only happens on my multi page form (created with the wizard), not on the regular "one page" form. I use Joomla! 1.5.10.

What causes this?

Thank you very much!

Patrick
