 * So I’ve been trying to create a website using html and css.
    Had been moving 
   it all onto wordpress, using a blank theme (html5blank theme) The css was not
   working at all, so I was playing around in the editor. I added a few things to
   the function.php file, and ta da, parse error now, and really have no idea what
   to do
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘}’ in /home3/kirkmandp/public_html/dpk-
   tennis.com/wp-content/themes/html5blank-stable/functions.php on line 18
 * I saw in a forum the suggestion is to use filezilla to access the file still.
   
   I was able to get into and see the file using filezilla, but i can’t extract 
   it to make any changes, so don’t know what I’m doing.
 * I’m a bit out of my depth, some help or suggestions would be amazing.
    If I haven’t
   put the right info to solve please let me know what I should put.
