title: Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_FUNCTION' in my MVC framework
body: <p>I'm following the <a href="http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/php/create-your-first-tiny-mvc-boilerplate-with-php/comment-page-2/#comment-358132" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Create your First Tiny MVC Boilerplate with PHP</a> tutorial, and as far as I can tell--my code is identical to Jeff's code... yet I'm receiving this error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p><strong>Parse error:</strong> parse error, expecting
    `T_FUNCTION' in
    <strong>D:\wamp\www\MVC_test\application\load.php</strong>
    on line <strong>8</strong></p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p><strong>load.php</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php
  
      class Load {
          function view( $file_name, $data = NULL )
          {
              if( is_array($data) ) { extract($data); }
          }
          include 'views/' . $file_name;
      }
  
  ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried a few different things, but I don't understand what is wrong with line 8.</p>
