 * Hi, I am new to this and not an expert, however, I am fairly good at following
   directions. I did all the installation requirements, then I went to the install.
   php and I get this error:
    `Parse error: parse error, unexpected '}' in /homepages/
   11/d91630976/htdocs/index/wp02/wp-includes/formatting.php on line 104`
 * I use 1and1.com for my webhosting with:
    php MySQL5.0
 * I used the ftp client on Frontpage to upload it….not sure if that makes a difference.
   I tried changing some of the database properties, username, password….and I got
   the WP error pages, telling me it uploaded correctly.
 * Please help.
 * Thanks,
    Matt

 * Try using something like FileZilla to do FTP uploads.
 * I’d delete and reupload the WordPress files.
