PHP active page code - I can't figure out parse error
- by dmschenk
I'm trying to build an active page menu with PHP and MySQL and am having a difficult time fixing the error.  In the while statement I have an if statement that is giving me fits.  Basically I think I'm saying that "thispage" is equal to the "title" based on pageID and as the menu is looped through if "thispage" is equal to "title" then echo id="active".
Thanks
<?php
    mysql_select_db($database_db_connection, $db_connection);
    $query_rsDaTa = "SELECT * FROM pages WHERE pagesID = 4";
    $rsDaTa = mysql_query($query_rsDaTa, $db_connection) or die(mysql_error());
    $row_rsDaTa = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsDaTa);
    $totalRows_rsDaTa = mysql_num_rows($rsDaTa);
    $query_rsMenu = "SELECT * FROM menu WHERE online = 1 ORDER BY menuPos ASC";
    $rsMenu = mysql_query($query_rsMenu, $db_connection) or die(mysql_error());
$thisPage = ($row_rsDaTa['title']); 
?>
<link href="../css/MainStyle.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<h2><?php echo $thisPage; ?></h2>
<div id="footcontainer">
<ul id="footlist">
<?php   
        while($row_rsMenu = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsMenu)) {
        echo ("   <li" .  <?php if ($thisPage==$row_rsDaTa['title']) echo  id="active"; ?> . "<a href=\"../" . $row_rsMenu['menuURL'] . "\">" . $row_rsMenu['menuName'] . "</a></li>\n");
        }
        echo "</ul>\n";
?>
</div>
<?php
    mysql_free_result($rsMenu);
    mysql_free_result($rsDaTa); 
?>
