PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '.' in /.../sites/all/modules/fckeditor/fckeditor.config.js on line 107

PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /.../sites/all/modules/fckeditor/fckeditor/fckstyles.xml on line 1

Line 107 of fkceditor.config.js contained a javascript comment that had php tags in it (I removed), while the xml file of course opened with which I replaced with ‘;?>

Had I known that the server did not need php to handle these extensions I might have altered apache to not handle xml or js with php but wasn’t my decision to make so making these tweeks allowed fckeditor to run properly (Until someone else updates them
