Of course! Thanks for that. I'm really enjoying learning about coding. I can crack on with the rest of the booklet now

Your missing a closing ) in your foreach loop:

Code:

<?php
$files=scandir(".");
foreach ($files as $file) {
print "$file\n";
}

?>

Hi, I am a total newb when it comes to programming and was really enjoying the php coding academy in this month's mag until I ground to a halt at page 19.
I have input the following to project1.php
<?php
$files=scandir(".");
foreach ($files as $file {
print "$file\n";
}

?>
When I try and run the script I get the following error message

PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';' in /home/sean/PHP/project1.php on line 4
Please can anyone advise me as to what I am doing wrong? I believe I have input exactly what was stated in the magazine. I am obviously doing something wrong so any advice would be much apprectiated

thanks
Sean
