# Problem with options.php

 * I did: edit some code on options.php but returned the file to
    normal/as it was
 * I saw: the following error when I went to any URL on the blog:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘:’, expecting ‘)’ in
    /home2/backlin2/
   public_html/theopenalgorithm/wp-content/themes/deep-blue/options/options.php 
   on line 112
 * Try it yourself with the homepage or any other page.
 * I copied and pasted the code into another file and posted to a PHP
    forum but
   the person who responded said that there was nothing wrong with the code and 
   that the error means that there is a 🙂 in the document somewhere there shouldn’t
   be.
 * I now can’t access my blog or admin from either the normal channel or
    coming
   from my host.
 * Please help me out as even if I did find where the error is I can’t
    edit it?
 * Thanks
 * Mark Collier
