session error

oggie · #1 14-Apr-2008, 09:21

This is the code I have got. And I included the syntax error that keeps coming up. I have no idea's.

PHP Code:


// start output buffering.
ob_start();
// Initialise a session.
session_start()
[color="red"]$_SESSION['sid'] = "sid"; this is line 8[/color]
setcookie("sid", sid, time()+3600);
setcookie("sid", $_GET["uname"], time()+3600);
$CheckInTime = Time();
$query="INSERT INTO `NetImOn` (`U_Name`, `LoginTime`, `SessionId`) VALUES ('".$_GET["uname"]."', '".$CheckInTime."', '".session_id()."')"  or die(mysql_error()); 
mysql_query($query);

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/ogl10b7/public_html/EricsCarRepairs/includes/header.html on line 8

any solutions why
