 * Very excited about this plugin, but received this error on activation:
 * Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION
   or T_VAR or ‘}’ in /wp-content/plugins/front-end-editor/inc/scb/Options.php on
   line 4

 * I’m getting this same error too.
 * Using version 0.9.5 of the plugin and running PHP 5.2.8 on the server. Any ideas?
 * Thank you.

 * I’m sorry, but I’m not going to do that.
 * Instead, you should ask your hosting company to upgrade to PHP 5.

 * For all the people who think they’re running PHP 5:
 * Add this line to your wp-config.php file:
 * `var_dump(PHP_VERSION);`
