Your second opening tag for php is <?php> instead of <?php

BTW: use code tags, please.

and I hope you have more to your file than what you pasted, because your listmovies_() function is not closed with a closing curly braces.

OMG!!! what a little thing....I have taught myself to make sure everything is inside <> and then I added one too many when not needed......code works perfect now. Yes there is more to it and it closes itself. Thanks for the feedback. And I am going to watch much more closely. Thanks again

If you get a PHP editor it usually flags it for you. I know what your error meant when I first saw it, but I'm lazy I did not go through it character by character to see where you missed it. I pasted it into my IDE (NuSphere PHPED), and it underlined the problem in red immediately.

Not all PHP editors have syntax checkers like this, but it really helps you time and frustration wise in the long run if you get one that does.
