I'm getting an error with my code.
Error Parse error: syntax error, unexpected end of file in C:\xampp\htdocs\phpcart5\products.php on line 41.
Is it an error of brackets or because of the while loop? Can someone please help?

It looks like you're using PHP short tags in your script (<? /* PHP statement */ ?>). If any short_open_tag setting in your php.ini file is set to Off, then those PHP tags would cause issues.
The correct way to solve this in PHP 5.4 and later versions? Use <?php /* statement */ ?> instead:
<?php session_start(); ?>

If, for some reason, you are unable to use PHP 5.4+ (which is bad; PHP 5.3 is no longer supported), then the easiest thing to do would be to also replace instances of <?= $value ?> with <?php echo $value; ?>
<?php session_start(); ?>
