每个人都会遇到语法错误。即使是经验丰富的程序员也会出现拼写错误。对于新人来说,这只是学习过程的一部分。然而,通常很容易解释如下错误消息:
PHP解析错误:语法错误,在index.php第20行中出现意外的“{”
意想不到的符号并不总是真正的罪魁祸首。但是行号给出了从哪里开始查找的大致概念。
总是查看代码上下文。语法错误通常隐藏在前面提到的或前面的代码行中。将您的代码与手册中的语法示例进行比较。
但并不是所有情况都是一样的。但是有一些通用的步骤可以解决语法错误。

意想不到的T_STRING
T_STRING有点用词不当。它不引用引用的“字符串”。这意味着遇到了原始标识符。这可以是空白的单词、剩余的CONSTANT或函数名、被遗忘的不带引号的字符串或任何纯文本。
Misquoted strings
This syntax error is most common for misquoted string values however. Any unescaped and stray " or ' quote will form an invalid expression:
⇓ ⇓
echo "<a href="http://example.com">click here</a>";
Syntax highlighting will make such mistakes super obvious. It's important to remember to use backslashes for escaping \" double quotes, or \' single quotes - depending on which was used as string enclosure.
For convenience you should prefer outer single quotes when outputting plain HTML with double quotes within.
Use double quoted strings if you want to interpolate variables, but then watch out for escaping literal " double quotes.
For lengthier output, prefer multiple echo/print lines instead of escaping in and out. Better yet consider a HEREDOC section.
Another example is using PHP entry inside HTML code generated with PHP:
$text = '<div>some text with <?php echo 'some php entry' ?></div>'
This happens if $text is large with many lines and developer does not see the whole PHP variable value and focus on the piece of code forgetting about its source. Example is here
See also What is the difference between single-quoted and double-quoted strings in PHP?.
Unclosed strings
If you miss a closing " then a syntax error typically materializes later. An unterminated string will often consume a bit of code until the next intended string value:
⇓
echo "Some text", $a_variable, "and some runaway string ;
success("finished");
⇯
It's not just literal T_STRINGs which the parser may protest then. Another frequent variation is an Unexpected '>' for unquoted literal HTML.
Non-programming string quotes
If you copy and paste code from a blog or website, you sometimes end up with invalid code. Typographic quotes aren't what PHP expects:
$text = ’Something something..’ + ”these ain't quotes”;
Typographic/smart quotes are Unicode symbols. PHP treats them as part of adjoining alphanumeric text. For example ”these is interpreted as a constant identifier. But any following text literal is then seen as a bareword/T_STRING by the parser.
The missing semicolon; again
If you have an unterminated expression in previous lines, then any following statement or language construct gets seen as raw identifier:
⇓
func1()
function2();
PHP just can't know if you meant to run two functions after another, or if you meant to multiply their results, add them, compare them, or only run one || or the other.
Short open tags and <?xml headers in PHP scripts
This is rather uncommon. But if short_open_tags are enabled, then you can't begin your PHP scripts with an XML declaration:
⇓
<?xml version="1.0"?>
PHP will see the <? and reclaim it for itself. It won't understand what the stray xml was meant for. It'll get interpreted as constant. But the version will be seen as another literal/constant. And since the parser can't make sense of two subsequent literals/values without an expression operator in between, that'll be a parser failure.
Invisible Unicode characters
A most hideous cause for syntax errors are Unicode symbols, such as the non-breaking space. PHP allows Unicode characters as identifier names. If you get a T_STRING parser complaint for wholly unsuspicious code like:
<?php
print 123;
You need to break out another text editor. Or an hexeditor even. What looks like plain spaces and newlines here, may contain invisible constants. Java-based IDEs are sometimes oblivious to an UTF-8 BOM mangled within, zero-width spaces, paragraph separators, etc. Try to reedit everything, remove whitespace and add normal spaces back in.
You can narrow it down with with adding redundant ; statement separators at each line start:
<?php
;print 123;
The extra ; semicolon here will convert the preceding invisible character into an undefined constant reference (expression as statement). Which in return makes PHP produce a helpful notice.
The `$` sign missing in front of variable names
Variables in PHP are represented by a dollar sign followed by the name of the variable.
The dollar sign ($) is a sigil that marks the identifier as a name of a variable. Without this sigil, the identifier could be a language keyword or a constant.
This is a common error when the PHP code was "translated" from code written in another language (C, Java, JavaScript, etc.). In such cases, a declaration of the variable type (when the original code was written in a language that uses typed variables) could also sneak out and produce this error.
Escaped Quotation marks
If you use \ in a string, it has a special meaning. This is called an "Escape Character" and normally tells the parser to take the next character literally.
Example: echo 'Jim said \'Hello\''; will print Jim said 'hello'
If you escape the closing quote of a string, the closing quote will be taken literally and not as intended, i.e. as a printable quote as part of the string and not close the string. This will show as a parse error commonly after you open the next string or at the end of the script.
Very common error when specifiying paths in Windows: "C:\xampp\htdocs\" is wrong. You need "C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\".
Typed properties
You need PHP ≥7.4 to use property typing such as:
public stdClass $obj;
意想不到的T_IF
意想不到的T_FOREACH
意想不到的T_FOR
意想不到的T_WHILE
意想不到的T_DO
意想不到的T_ECHO
控制结构,如if、foreach、for、while、list、global、return、do、print、echo只能作为语句使用。它们通常单独驻留在一行上。
Semicolon; where you at?
Pretty universally have you missed a semicolon in the previous line if the parser complains about a control statement:
⇓
$x = myfunc()
if (true) {
Solution: look into the previous line; add semicolon.
Class declarations
Another location where this occurs is in class declarations. In the class section you can only list property initializations and method sections. No code may reside there.
class xyz {
if (true) {}
foreach ($var) {}
Such syntax errors commonly materialize for incorrectly nested { and }. In particular when function code blocks got closed too early.
Statements in expression context
Most language constructs can only be used as statements. They aren't meant to be placed inside other expressions:
⇓
$var = array(1, 2, foreach($else as $_), 5, 6);
Likewise can't you use an if in strings, math expressions or elsewhere:
⇓
print "Oh, " . if (true) { "you!" } . " won't work";
// Use a ternary condition here instead, when versed enough.
For embedding if-like conditions in an expression specifically, you often want to use a ?: ternary evaluation.
The same applies to for, while, global, echo and a lesser extend list.
⇓
echo 123, echo 567, "huh?";
Whereas print() is a language built-in that may be used in expression context. (But rarely makes sense.)
Reserved keywords as identifiers
You also can't use do or if and other language constructs for user-defined functions or class names. (Perhaps in PHP 7. But even then it wouldn't be advisable.)
Your have a semi-colon instead of a colon (:) or curly bracket ({) after your control block
Control structures are typically wrapped in curly braces (but colons can be used in an alternative syntax) to represent their scope. If you accidentally use a semi-colon you prematurely close that block resulting in your closing statement throwing an error.
foreach ($errors as $error); <-- should be : or {
意想不到的“?”
如果您试图使用<?PHP <?PHP这个错误将被返回*。
$var = 'hello '<?php echo 'world'; ?>;
*为PHP版本4.3.1,4.3.5——4.3.11 4.4.0——4.1.1 5.0.0——5.0.5 10/24/11——4.4.9 5.1.0——5.1.6 5.2.0——5.2.17 5.3.0——5.3.29 5.4.0 5.4.45,发送,5.5.38 5.6.0——5.6.40 7.0.0——7.0.33 7.1.0——7.1.33 7.2.0——7.2.34 7.3.0——7.3.31 7.4.0——7.4.24
如果您正在尝试使用空合并操作符??在php7之前的版本中,你会得到这个错误。
<?= $a ?? 2; // works in PHP 7+
<?= (!empty($a)) ? $a : 2; // All versions of PHP
意想不到的”?,期望变量
可空类型也会出现类似的错误,如下所示:
function add(?int $sum): ?int {
这再次表明使用了过时的PHP版本(CLI版本PHP -v或web服务器绑定的phpinfo();)。
意想不到的美元结束
当PHP谈到“意外的$end”时,这意味着您的代码在解析器期望更多代码时结束了。(如果从字面上理解,这个信息有点误导。它不是关于一个名为“$end”的变量,就像新来者有时认为的那样。它指的是“文件的结束”,EOF。)
原因:代码块/和函数或类声明的{和}不平衡。
它几乎总是缺少一个}花括号来关闭前面的代码块。它的意思是,解析器希望找到一个结束},但实际上到达了文件的末尾。
同样,使用适当的缩进来避免此类问题。
使用带有括号匹配的IDE,找出}错误的地方。
在大多数ide和文本编辑器中都有快捷键:
NetBeans, PhpStorm, Komodo: Ctrl[和Ctrl]
Eclipse, Aptana: CtrlShiftP
Atom, Sublime: Ctrlm - Zend Studio Ctrlm
Geany, notepad++: CtrlB - Joe: CtrlG - Emacs: C-M-n - Vim: %
大多数ide还突出显示匹配的大括号、方括号和圆括号。
这使得检查它们的相关性变得非常容易:
无端接的表达式
对于未结束的表达式或语句,也会出现意外的$end语法/解析器错误:
$var = func(1,
?>EOF
因此,首先查看脚本的末尾。拖尾;在任何PHP脚本中,最后一条语句通常是多余的。但你应该有一个。正是因为它缩小了这些语法问题的范围。特别是在您发现自己在脚本末尾添加了更多语句之后。
缩进的HEREDOC标记
另一种常见情况出现在HEREDOC或NOWDOC字符串中。如果前面有空格、制表符等,终止标记将被忽略:
print <<< END
Content...
Content....
END;
# ↑ terminator isn't exactly at the line start
因此,解析器假定HEREDOC字符串将一直持续到文件的末尾(因此是“意外的$end”)。几乎所有的ide和语法高亮编辑器都会明确显示或发出警告。
转义的引号
如果你在字符串中使用\,它有一个特殊的含义。这称为“转义字符”,通常告诉解析器按字面意思取下一个字符。
示例:echo 'Jim said \'Hello\ ";将打印Jim说'hello'
如果转义字符串的结束引号,结束引号将被字面上理解,而不是像预期的那样,即作为字符串的一部分而不是结束字符串的可打印引号。这通常会在打开下一个字符串后或脚本结束时显示为解析错误。
在Windows中指定路径时非常常见的错误:“C:\xampp\htdocs\”是错误的。你需要“C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\ \”。另外,PHP通常会转换unix风格的路径(例如。“C:/xampp/htdocs/”)到Windows的正确路径。
替代语法
在模板中使用语句/代码块的替代语法时,很少会看到这种语法错误。使用if:和else:和一个缺失的endif;为例。
