# wp-admin/profile.php – Parse Error on line 257

 * After having upgraded to 1.5.1.1 and having manually fixed as per 1.5.1.2, if
   I try to call the submenu “Profile”, I get the following message:
 * > _Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /xxx/wp-admin/profile.php on line
   > 257_
 * Unfortunately I can’t spot where said $ error could be roundabout the line 257.
   Does anyone else have seen this error?
 * Fast reply/solution would be appreciated very much.
 * TIA for your support.

 * One correction: the submenu is “Users” and not “Profile”.
 * Any comments/suggestions would be highly appreciated!
