This keeps showing up on my website:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '?' in /home/mileycyr/public_html/index.php on line 18

I can't find out whats wrong with it. Here is the code:

CODE

<?php
/**
 * Front to the WordPress application. This file doesn't do anything, but loads
 * wp-blog-header.php which does and tells WordPress to load the theme.
 *
 * @package WordPress
 */

/**
 * Tells WordPress to load the WordPress theme and output it.
 *
 * @var bool
 */
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);

/** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
require('./wp-blog-header.php');

I tried the above code and the page finally opened up, but now it freezes and the window closes down.

That might have something to do with your computer.
Can you give a link to the page?

Its gotta be your computer or some other code cause there is nothing in there that could close a window. There is no code in the world that can close a window without the permission of the user.

^ yes there is.

kaboom, die IE 6.

CODE

there are a few more that also crash IE 6, but i don't remember them off the top of my head. also, javascript can do much damage without the knowledge of the user if the creator wishes it.

I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but your index.php file had been hacked.

Someone inserted that iframe into it, trying to make their site popup in place of yours, but they botched it.

I know this because I just repaired a similar problem and the cocacola part of that url in the iframe was the same.

Hope this helps future readers.
