Hi All,
this code,

$flavour[] = "root beer";
$flavour[] = "pineapple";
sort($flavour);
print_r($flavour);
echo "<br>";
echo "My favourite flavours are:<br>";
foreach ($flavour as $currentValue) {
//these lines will execute as long as there is a value in $flavour
echo $currentValue "<br>\n";
}

gives this,
*Parse error*: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING,
expecting ',' or ';' in */usr/local/apache2/htdocs/sorting.php* on line *18
The echo in the foreach loop has no concatenation operator.
echo $currentValue "<br>\n";
should be
echo $currentValue."<br>\n";

If the code in the book you're reading really has a , in the foreach
line I suggest you throw it away and find another book, because that's
not valid PHP.
