Can not activate plugin

  1. I am attempting to activate the plug-in on http://www.stop-repo-orlando.com.

    I am using the latest stable plug-in that was downloaded today.

    I am using WP 3.0.

    I receive the following error when I attempt to activate the plugin.

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /homepages/30/d315142644/htdocs/web/StandardSites/stoprepoorlando/wp-content/plugins/gravityforms/gravityforms.php on line 53

  2. This is covered in one of the first questions on our FAQ:

    http://www.gravityhelp.com/frequently-asked-questions/

    This is a PHP version error. Gravity Forms requires PHP 5 and you are trying to activate it on a site running PHP 4. Contact your host to find out how to turn on PHP 5. It's usually a setting in the hosting control panel but it varies from host to host.
