I am in the process of migrating a website that was developed in India, and moving it to another webhost. Not being an expert at PHP has my head hurting from tracing the code. I think I narrowed down the problem to this bit here...
<?php include("../config.php"); ?>
<?php include("../header.php");
if(!empty($_REQUEST)){
$newsid = $_REQUEST['name'];
?>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.story_container').each(function(index) {
if ($(this).attr("id") == '<?php print $newsid; ?>' ) {
$(this).show();
}
else {
$(this).hide();
}
});
});
</script>
<?
}
?>
Specifically, if I delete the third and fourth lines, the 500 error goes away and the page loads, although not correctly, with a $newsid item loaded in the main part of the webpage.
If I'm not mistaken, there is a formatting error and looks like it is missing a terminating curly brace? The purpose of the opening and closing php tag at the end just to include a curly brace has me perplexed. If I close the if statement, the 500 error goes away, but again, the page doesn't load with a $newsid item in the main part of the webpage.
I am at a loss and hoping someone can help me troubleshoot this. Thanks!
Almost forgot. I mentioned the site was developed in India because this page in particular I had converted from ANSI format to UTF-8, in case that gives any more clues.
