Ok, so my PHP is, to say the least, horrible. I inherited an application and am having to fix errors in it from someone that wrote it over 7 years ago. When I run the page, there is no return, so I checked the logs to see the error and here is what i get:
PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '=', expecting ',' or ';' in /httpdocs/cron123/purge.php on line 4
Here is the code:
<?
ob_start();
global $siteRoot = '/httpdocs/';
global $reportRoot = '/reports/';
include('billing1.php');
$date='Purge report for: ' .date('M d, Y \a\t g:i a'); ?>
<html>
<head><title><?=$date?></title></head>
<body>
<?php
$account = new billing();
$ftresult = $account->purge();
new dBug($ftresult);
echo "successfully wrote";
?>
</body>
<?
$filename = "purge_report_" . date('y.m.d_\a\t_g_i_a') . ".html";
$loc = $reportRoot . 'purge_reports/';
$f = $loc . $filename;
$fp = @fopen($f, 'w');
@fwrite($fp, ob_get_contents());
@fclose($fp);
ob_end_flush();
?>
