Urgent help needed please, with parse error message

Question

Hi. I've got a page which comes at the end of a 3 page sequence - search, results, detail. The detail page had been working fine, but yesterday I added a second recordset to the page, to pull reviews from a separate table, and now I'm getting the following error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or '$' in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/goodvetguide/practice_Detail.php on line 78
(should point out that I'm using DMW8 on a Mac and testing locally using MAMP as my testing server).
line 78 is:
if (isset()) {
  $Parampractice_id_WADApracticelist = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ?  : addslashes();
and the full code for the page is posted below. I've googled this error and found a variety of different reasons for why this might be happening but none of the examples I've seen appear to apply to my case, so I'd really appreciate any assistance anyone can offer with this. Thanks in advance.
Page code:
<?php require_once('Connections/connGVG.php'); ?>
<?php require_once('Connections/connGVG.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")

  $theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);

Answer 1

I haven't studied your code in detail, but it looks very much as though you have been editing the page without properly removing server behaviors through the Server Behaviors panel. Look at the following section:
<?php require_once('Connections/connGVG.php'); ?>
<?php require_once('Connections/connGVG.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
  $theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
  $theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);
  switch ($theType) {
    case "text":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;   
    case "long":
    case "int":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "double":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "date":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "defined":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
      break;
  return $theValue;
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
  $theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
  $theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);
  switch ($theType) {
    case "text":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;   
    case "long":
    case "int":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "double":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "date":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "defined":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
      break;
  return $theValue;
?>
You have the connection file attached twice, and the GetSQLValueString() function is defined twice. However, the cause of all your problems lies here:
$Parampractice_WADApracticelist = "-1";if (isset($_GET['practice_id'])) {
  $Parampractice_WADApracticelist = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_GET['practice_id'] : addslashes($_GET['practice_id']);
$ParamSessionpractice_WADApracticelist = "-1";
if (isset($_SESSION['WADA_Insert_practicelist'])) {
  $ParamSessionpractice_WADApracticelist = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_SESSION['WADA_Insert_practicelist'] : addslashes($_SESSION['WADA_Insert_practicelist']);
$Parampractice_WADApracticelist = "-1";
if (isset($_GET['practice_id'])) {
  $Parampractice_WADApracticelist = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_GET['practice_id'] : addslashes($_GET['practice_id']);
$Parampractice_id_WADApracticelist = "-1";
if (isset()) {
  $Parampractice_id_WADApracticelist = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ?  : addslashes();
$Parampractice_id2_WADApracticelist = "-1";
if (isset()) {
  $Parampractice_id2_WADApracticelist = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ?  : addslashes();
$ParamSessionpractice_id_WADApracticelist = "-1";
if (isset()) {
  $ParamSessionpractice_id_WADApracticelist = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ?  : addslashes();
mysql_select_db($database_connGVG, $connGVG);
Look how many times the same code is repeated. What's causing the problem are the three final sections where there is no argument passed to isset().
Delete the code highlighted in red.
