Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in (file) on line 48

The line giving me the error is:

fclose($fp);

What's wrong there? It looks like it's correct according to http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fclose.php .

You haven't closed your else {} statement for starters.

Heh... it's always the dumb things. Now I'm getting:

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource in (file) on line 45

Any thoughts?
$fp = fsockopen("ssl://".$host, $port, $errno, $errstr, $timeout = 30);

if(!$fp){
//error tell us
echo "$errstr ($errno)\n";
}
else{

//send the server request
fputs($fp, "POST $path HTTP/1.1\r\n");
fputs($fp, "Host: $host\r\n");
fputs($fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n");
fputs($fp, "Content-length: ".strlen($poststring)."\r\n");
fputs($fp, "Connection: close\r\n\r\n");
fputs($fp, $poststring . "\r\n\r\n");
//loop through the response from the server
while(!feof($fp)) {
echo fgets($fp, 4096);
}
}
fclose($fp);

I changed it from ssl to normal http, and now it works. Just need to figure out how to do something else with the script.

What version of PHP are you running as the ssl:// type was only added in version 4.3.0
