    One this article: http://www.noozhawk.com/index.php/local_news/article/0523_santa_barbaras_icon_father_virgil_cordano_dies_at_89

    if I “allow comments” under the “options” tab I get this error:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in MY_PATH/core/core.functions.php(637) : eval()‘d code on line 149

    if I disable comments, the article shows up just fine (although, no one can comment on it). Any thoughts on why?  In only happens on this article.

    Welcome to the forums, noozhawk.  I’ve moved your post to the Technical Support forum so our support staff can readily assist you in resolving this issue.

    Can you post your local_news/article template code here, and the posted contents of the entry please?  The error you are getting is indicative of either a PHP syntax error in your template, or malformed ExpressionEngine conditionals.  There may be an interaction with the posted content of the entry as well since it’s only happening as you say with this one entry, so please post both.  If necessary, feel free to save to text files, zip and attach!

    Thanks noozhawk.  The entry content appears to have truncated, but looking at your template code, I see that you have some tags nested, which should be corrected.  The weblog entries tag within the comment form tag, specifically.  I would recommend fixing that first, e.g. moving the weblog entries tag outside of the comment form tag; neither of those tags are designed to be used nested within other tags.  But the direct source of the problem appears to be with your conditionals.

    {if {comment_tb_total}>0}
     ({comment_tb_total})
{/if}

    Variables used in conditionals should not be braced.  You may find this Knowledge Base article helpful in understanding proper conditionals syntax: Troubleshooting Conditionals.

    That’s it.

    Changing that piece of code to:

    {if comment_tb_total>0}
        ({comment_tb_total})
    {/if}

    (where “comment_tb_total” inside the conditional statement is not braced) made it work. Thanks for the help
