parse error accessing admin

hi

i installed the shop and all went well except when i wanted to access admin after password i got this:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /xxxxx/xxxxxxx/public_html/shop/includes/functions/admin.inc.php on line 15

xyncro, this may be caused by a corrupt FTP upload. Try uploading the file again. If this does not work send us an e-mail at support(at)litecart.net and we will try to have this resolved for you.

Edit:
I looked at the lines of code and the reason for your error is because you are running a PHP version lower than 5.3. Talk to your web host. Most probably they offer a way of switching between different PHP versions. PHP 5.3 is setting new syntax standards which is the reason for your error.

yepp!! you're right..

but cpanel didn't like to respond to my changes so i added a command in .htaccess ""forcing"" it to change php version and that made it..

now im able to use admin.. ;)

thx for your help! :)
