    SOLVED...

    original theme: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-when-installing-theme?replies=5

    Since someone CLOSED this thread... I can no longer post my solution there. So... I created a new thread with solution to this WordPress Theme "Deep Silent" problem. I too installed this theme and immediately got the following PHP error: "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in <directory>\htdocs\wp-content\themes\deep-silent\functions.php on line 409"

    The theme was created using PHP "Short Tags". You just need to enable Short Tags on your server (or have ADMIN do it). Here is quick and simple explanation on how to enable it: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2185320/how-to-enable-php-short-tags

    simple how to:

    Set
    short_open_tag=On
    in php.ini

    HOPE THAT HELPS!

    Just trying to give back to Community,
