I'm modifying the news script for my site to also add the article to my forum. I'm trying to use bbcodes to format the body of the post, but I keep getting parse errors. I have something like the following:

Code:

$post="[ b ]Heading[/ b ] Article";

Every time i get this error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING

I figured out that if i have [tag] it works fine. but then as soon as i add the closing tag ([/tag]) i get the error. any ideas how i can fix this?
