 * Hi,
    I have been unable to get my comments section to work. When the link is 
   clicked on the main blog page, I get the error: Parse error: parse error, unexpected‘;’
   in /home/content/c/h/e/cherylkemp/html/blog/wp-content/themes/Blix/single.php
   on line 25
 * I am not that great at this stuff, but I looked at the single.php file and I 
   can’t figure out what is wrong. Help please 🙂 Here is the code:
 * <?php get_header(); ?>
 * <!– content …………………………… –>
    <div id=”content”>
 * <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
 * <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
 *  <?php /* This is the navigation for previous/next post. It’s disabled by default.?
   >
    <p id=”entrynavigation”> <?php previous_post(‘<span class=”previous”>%</span
   >’,”,’yes’) ?> <?php next_post(‘<span class=”next”>%</span>’,”,’yes’) ?>
 *  <?php */ ?>
 *  <div class=”entry single”>
 * </h2>
 *  <p class=”info”>
    <?php if ($post->comment_status == “open”) ?>
 *  <em class=”date><?php the_time(‘F jS, Y’) ?><!– at <?php the_time(‘g:ia’) ??
   >
 *  <!–<em class=”author”><?php the_author(); ?>–>
    <?php edit_post_link(‘Edit’,'
   <span class=”editlink”>’,'</span>’); ?>
 *  <?php the_content();?>
 *  <p id=”filedunder”>Entry Filed under: <?php the_category(‘,’); ?>
 *  </div>
 * <?php endwhile; ?>
 * <?php else : ?>
 *  <h2>Not Found</h2>
    “Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.
 * <?php endif; ?>
 * <?php comments_template(); ?>
 * </div> <!– /content –>
 * <?php get_sidebar(); ?>
 * <?php get_footer(); ?>

    <em class="date><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?><!-- at <?php the_time('g:ia')??
   >   the ??> is problematic. 😉
