This error message is reported on your page :

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_VARIABLE' or `'$'' in ************** on line ***

At first i thougt this was because i was "making" a 2 dimentional array or because i was doing somthing wrong in the query to MySQL but i found out the hard way that this was not the case. To reproduce this error is pretty easy, the only ting you have to do is this :

<?php
$2dAnim="All your base are belong to us.";
?>
... just this will trigger it, to fix this error just do :

<?php
$TwoDAnim="All your base are belong to us.";
?>

Apparently if you have a digit as the first char in a variable you will get this error message.

It would of been nice if i could have found some information about this, but instead i sat for "two" days trying to figure out how i screewd up the Multidimensional array or the Query.
