typically, you're missing something on the line above, like a closing ) or a ; or something. Post the 5 lines above the line reported in the error message, and the line itself.

I'm still putting it together so excuse the code.....

<?php include ("../includes/classes/TellAFriend.php");
include("../includes/literals.php");
include("../includes/classes/DatabaseHandler.php");
import_request_variables('p', 'p_');

      $friend = new TellAFriend();

      $friend->Name = $p_name1;
      $friend->Email = $p_email1;

      $friend->SendEmail();

?>

The function SendEmail consists of:
function SendEmail()
{
            $mailTo = "$this->Email";
            $mailSubject = "UK Caravan Finder - Invites You.";
            $Header = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
            $Header .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
            $Header .= "From: registrar@ukcaravanfinder.co.uk";
            $output = "Your friend thought you'd be interested in the new craze if the caravn world!!<BR><BR>";
            $output = nl2br($output);
            (mail($mailTo, $mailSubject, stripslashes($output), $Header));
}

the error message is:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CLASS in /data01/ukcarfin/public_html/includes/classes/DatabaseHandler.php on line 2

but I use the DatabaseHandler class a lot and and have no probs with it so I dont think thats the prob..........
