Why am I getting this error...

[Dark_Wizard]

It's only on some sites and it's driving me nuts...

The error is:
Parse error: parse error, expecting `']'' in /home/heroclan/public_html/forums/vchallenge.php(172) : eval()'d code on line 303


and here is the offending line in the template:
<option value="12:00" $wartimeselected[12:00]>12:00</option>

and the PHP code:

PHP Code:

if(isset($HTTP_POST_VARS["wartime"])) $wartimeselected[$HTTP_POST_VARS["wartime"]]="selected"; 


It doesn't like this [12:00] anyone know why?

My guess is it don't like the : in the array element name.

But why only certain sites? All are using PHP 4.2.3...

I have no idea.

I tried the : in php Expert editor. The colon causes a syntax error.
Lose the : in the element array names.

Then I would have to do seperate months and days in the dropdown and then implode it...

PHP Code:

if( isset( $HTTP_POST_VARS['wartime'] ) )
{
 $wartimeselected["$HTTP_POST_VARS['wartime']"]="selected";
} 


Try that ^^

If the extra double quotes don't work try single quotes. I think it's double quotes though on keys with variables in
