 * Hello. I have a site with WordPress since 2009. Recently it has become inaccessible.
   An error code pops up, Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<‘ in /home3/nations/
   public_html/billbolin.org/index.php on line 18.
    Is there a fix for this?

 * Syntax Error
 * A syntax error means that you have made a mistake while creating your PHP structure.
 * When this error appears it will tell you which file the error appears in and 
   approximately which line (it may not always be the exact line so be sure to check
   just before and just after) in the code.
 * Unexpected
 * If you are receiving an error which says ‘parse error: unexpected’ this usually
   means that you have forgotten to include a character.

 * How do I remove it and get access back to my WordPress blog?
