Author php syntax problem - need help

given I have in main.php :

<?php
require_once 'breadcrumbs.php';
?>

and in breadcrumbs.php I have:

<?
class breadcrumb {
echo '1234';
}
?>

I get an error message:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ECHO, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or
T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in
/mnt/web_j/d02/s44/a00071yw/www/breadcrumbs.php on line 3

I'm doing this on my remote host. breadcrumbs.php is in the same dir as
main.php.

What could the problem be?

Thanks

Sorry I realize i need the {....} but not class breadcrumb cause i'm
not doing OOP - just the {...} and it works now.

Sorry to bother...

You don't need the braces either. Just the echo statement itself.

that's just the oddest thing... if you're trying to require_once a PHP
file that has the text "1234" in it, you don't even need to put in the
<?php ?> at all... just have this for breadcrumbs.php

1234
