I was recently switched computers at work, and am trying to get all my projects up and running again. I am working on testing some php/html/javascript pages for a website using a local xampp server. I had everything working properly on the only computer, but when I try to load the pages now I get the following error:
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token <
I have tried a php-only test page, so I know the sever is capable of parsing php.
I also know it is not the short tag issue, as all of the php code is wrapped in
<?php...?>
Are there any other configuration settings that would be causing this issue?
The error message doesn't look like a PHP error. Check this discussion maybe you can find the solution there.
It seems the error is reported by Google Chrome when it expects to parse a .js file and it finds HTML (or PHP?) instead.
I think it is a JavaScript error, you should check your js code, not php.
The following reasons might cause this error:
href attribute value "javascript: void ()", no brackets add "0"
<a href="javascript:void()">Button</a> // error
<a href="javascript:void(0)">Button</a> // correct
Non-compliant JSON string
etc.
