 * First I wasn’t sure if I supposed to create Topic in this forum or Coding, but
   this is themes forum so I decide to create it here.
 * I am creating my own theme based on a tutorial, and I get this error:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘;’ in C:\xampp\htdocs\…\single.php on 
   line 26
 * And my code on line 26 is:
 * `<?php if ( ('open' == $post->comment_status) && ('open' == $post->ping_status))://
   Comments and trackbacks open ?>`
 * What **“;”** is unexpected?!
 * If anyone is willing to help, I’ll be greatfull!
