  • I’m not a developer, but there definitely seems to be a missing closing bracket } just before the else.

    remove the else and see if the error goes away or if another error appears
    ————————
    else {
    $val = $_POST[“input_” . $field[“id”]];
    setcookie(“gf_”.$field[“inputName”], $val, time() + 31536000, COOKIEPATH, COOKIE_DOMAIN, false, true);
    }

    Then you added it in the wrong place. Look at your indentation…it’s very obvious where the closing brace is missing.

    count the { brackets, then count the } brackets – see if they match (btw, i already counted themand they matches)
