    <p>I'm making this function where a part of an array should be read, and each value holds a number with which I want to perform a PDO query. This is my following code:</p> <pre><code>function get_topics($array) { $top = 20; $base = 0; foreach ($array as $key =&gt; $value) { $getData = $dbc-&gt;prepare('SELECT * FROM topics WHERE id = :id LIMIT 1');  $getData-&gt;execute(array(':id' =&gt; $value)); while($row = $getData-&gt;fetch()) { $potential_topic_img = 'members/topic_' . $value . '.jpg';  if (file_exists($potential_topic_img)) { $topic_img = $potential_topic_img; } else { $topic_img = 'members/0.jpg'; }  $name = $row['name']; echo '&lt;div class="topic_div"&gt;&lt;img src="' . $topic_img . '" width="80"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10pt;"&gt;' . $name . '&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'; } if (++$base == $top) break; } } echo get_topics($some_array); </code></pre> <p>But all I get is an error telling this: "<strong>Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/......</strong>", and it says that the problem is on this line:</p> <pre><code>$getData-&gt;execute(array(':id' =&gt; $value)); </code></pre> <p>What can I be doing wrong?</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong></p> <p>I deleted some code and the code is running fine when this is remaining:</p> <pre><code>function get_topics($array) { foreach ($array as $key =&gt; $value) { echo $value; } } echo get_topics($user_likes_array); </code></pre> <p>So it's not that $value is empty, the problem seems to be in the line I mentioned in the beginning, since when I move everything below that line, the error message does not change, but it does change when I move that specific line.</p>

    3. COI guess it's not the line, that causes the error, because there is nothing wrong with it. Would be useful, if you can provide more information.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
