unexpected T_String

CSU

I'm just not quite savvy enough yet to spot what's wrong with this syntax - help much appreciated

At the first if statement I'm getting a Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING error.

What is wrong with my syntax please?
[PHP]<?php

$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace("/username/", "/$display_name/", "/$findPage[page_info]/");

Try this maybe?
[PHP]
<?php

$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#username#', '$display_name', $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#timestamp#', '$timestamp2', $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#points#', '$points', $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#gamename#', '$gameName2', $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#gameid#', '$game', $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#hungerlevel#', '$hungerLevel', $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#pointsname#', '$pointVar', $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#usersonline#', '$countUsersOn', $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#totalusers#', '$numMembers', $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#activepetID#', '$activePetID', $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#activepet#', '$activePetName', $findPage[page_info]);

$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#activepetlvl#', '$activePetLevel', $findPage[page_info]);

if (empty($getInfo2[real_name])) { // I added here what I think you wanted?
$getInfo2[real_name] = "Unknown Name";
}

$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#realname#', '$pointVar', $findPage[page_info]);

if ($getInfo2[gender] == 2) { $gender = '<font color="blue"><b>Male</b></font>'; }
if ($getInfo2[gender] == 1) { $gender = '<font color="#FF0099"><b>Female</b></font>'; }
if ($getInfo2[gender] == 0) { $gender = "Undecided"; }
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#gender#', '$gender', $findPage[page_info]);

not sure, but $ is a reserved character for regular expressions, so I'm not sure about using them as variable names in strings for preg_replace...

Emm the OP isn't using variables in the pattern. See preg_replace. The single quotes around the replacement value, could possible be removed as well.

So although the code above should work, you could also try this one:[PHP]
<?php

$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#username#', $display_name, $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#timestamp#', $timestamp2, $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#points#', $points, $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#gamename#', $gameName2, $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#gameid#', $game, $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#hungerlevel#', $hungerLevel, $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#pointsname#', $pointVar, $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#usersonline#', $countUsersOn, $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#totalusers#', $numMembers, $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#activepetID#', $activePetID, $findPage[page_info]);
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#activepet#', $activePetName, $findPage[page_info]);

$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#activepetlvl#', $activePetLevel, $findPage[page_info]);

if (empty($getInfo2[real_name])) { // I added here what I think you wanted?
$getInfo2[real_name] = "Unknown Name";
}

$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#realname#', $pointVar, $findPage[page_info]);

if ($getInfo2[gender] == 2) { $gender = '<font color="blue"><b>Male</b></font>'; }
if ($getInfo2[gender] == 1) { $gender = '<font color="#FF0099"><b>Female</b></font>'; }
if ($getInfo2[gender] == 0) { $gender = "Undecided"; }
$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace('#gender#', $gender, $findPage[page_info]);

You've also got double quotes on this line:

$findPage[page_info] = preg_replace("/gamename/", "/$gameName2/", ""/$findPage[page_info]/");
