Wordpress: unexpected T_STRING error

I have a custom field named galleries that is producing the "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING" error.

galleries field has the server location of a gallery ( /home/www/gallery1.php )

If I hardcode the link in the template it works

Code:

<?php include('/home/www/gallery1.php'); ?>

But...

Code:

<?php include('<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'galleries', true) ?>'); ?>

^^ ERROR ^^

Whats wrong with this line?

:helpme

Code:

<?php include('<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'galleries', true) ?>'); ?>

That code is incorrect in a few ways.

The immediate reason you get T_STRING error is because you have single quotes within single quotes.

Also the use of include is incorrect and unnecessary..

Just do <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'galleries', true); ?>

Thanks, I didnt notice the single quote issue.

If I use just the <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'galleries', true); ?>

it just prints out the location of the gallery /home/www/gallery1.php

What I'm trying to do is include a html page within the template.

If figured it out.

I set the custom field as a variable, then used that var in the include.

<?php include(get_post_meta($post->ID, 'galleries', true)); ?>

Thats probably what you wanted if the path is correct.
