PHP Parse error:syntax Error, unexpected t_string, how to handle

PHP Parse error:syntax error, unexpected t_string
Parse error:syntax error, unexpected t_string, expecting t_old_function or t_function or T_var or '} ' in D:\inetpub\vhost s\jszy.hebut.edu.cn\httpdocs\admin\common\mysql.class.php on line 11



The 11th line of code is:

Private $host;



How can it be reported that this is the wrong version of PHP?


------Solution--------------------
Private only after the PHP5.
No, you're php4, right?
If it is php5, please post the first 11 lines of code
------Solution--------------------
To be exact, the const is only after 5.3.
