    Trying to run the install.php and get this error message.

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ELSE in C:\.. ..\wp-includes\post-template.php on line 880

    php version 5.2.3.

    I'm a novice - don't have a clue what to do.

    is this on a windows server or a localhost install?
    if localhost, review this

    I got an error on my install, it is
    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/chinaexp/public_html/wordpress/wp-config.php on line 3

    on my wp-config is like this
    // ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
    /** The name of the database for WordPress */
    define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress');

    /** MySQL database username */
    define('DB_USER', 'chinaexp_wordps');

    /** MySQL database password */
    define('DB_PASSWORD', 'tTpOyt');

    /** MySQL hostname */
    define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');

    anybody can tell me what is wrong? thank you.
