Hi, Please have a look at this error below - Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '.', expecting T_NS_SEPARATOR in /var/www/myproject/phpdocx/classes/cCreateDocx.inc on line 366 The same code was working fine on our old server but it has stopped working on our new server. Any ideas what is going wrong here? Thanks

Hello, There should be a README or release note, or in the phpdoc of the CreateDocx class. Regards.

Hello Admin I am sorry but README or release note files are missing. I am just working on some other developer's code. I had a look at cCreateDocx.inc file in the phpdocx/classes folder, the top of the file has this header info block only : /** * @author 2mdc.com * @version */ The files are dated April, 2010 - does this help to find the version? Or is there any other method to find the version? thank you

Hello, The first versions of phpdocx used a constant called NAMESPACE that conflicts with PHP 5.3 or higher. So we recommend you to upgrade your phpdocx version. Regards.

Hello Admin, Yes, we are using PHP 5.3 on the newer server and the older one had PHP 5.2 Is there any "fix" we can apply without having to degrade to php 5.2? Thank you.

Hello, No, there's no patch. You need to download the phpdocx 3.7 or upgrade to a phpdocx 4. Regards.
