 * Hi… i’m a graphic designer attempting to code my first wordpress theme. At the
   moment i’m stuck at a parse error that’s showing up.
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/content/s/o/u/soumyasm/html/
   mywordpress/wp-content/themes/My Website New WordPress Theme/index.php on line
   45
 * On googling i found that it may be because of an open curly bracket… so i checked
   for it and went over the code again and again… but i can’t really figure out 
   where the problem is. Any help please!
 * This is the index file and line 45 is the last line that says get footer…
 * _[code moderated according to [forum rules ](http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome)-
