title: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1
body: <p>My client says he is getting this error using my script:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in /path/to//header.php  on line 34
  Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING or '(' in/path/to/header.php  on line 34
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The line 34 in <code>header.php</code> is just <code>use \Main\Class;</code></p>
  
  <p>Now, I told him he has to have <code>PHP &gt;= 5.3.0</code> and he says his PHP version is <code>5.3.24</code></p>
  
  <p>What could be the problem?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: The lines before and after</p>
  
  <pre><code>30. // Define absolute path
  31. define("ABSPATH", $abs_path);
  32. $_SESSION["abs_path"] = ABSPATH;
  33. 
  34. use \CNS\main\CNS;
  35. $cns = new CNS();
