Two parse errors and one smaller issue with user accounts.

Hi guys. I've been following the tutorial for user accounts and I recently finished it. When I started to test it out I noticed two large errors and one smaller one. The first of which is this: "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{', expecting '(' in /home/username/public_html/register.php on line 17" Here's line 17:
if (empty{$_POST['password']) || empty($_POST['repeat_password'])){
The next issue is similar. On the login page I get this message: "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in /home/username/public_html/login.php on line 14" and here's line
if(empty(S_POST['password'])){
If anyone could help me out it would be great.

You got an { where it should be (.
(empty{$_POST['password'])

Thanks! That fixed that and I'm guessing I did something similar on the login page. But after fixing that curly bracket I got this error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/username/public_html/register.php on line 32
This is line 32:
$_SESSION['username'] = htmlentities $_POST['username']);
Is it the session part that's causing problems?

That should be
$_SESSION['username'] = htmlentities($_POST['username']);

Well it seems like a new issue has appeared.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{' in /home/username/public_html/core/init.inc.php on line 12
The odd thing here is that there is no "{" on line 12:
header('Location: login.php');

Could you post your full code?
It might be that you've forgotten a } somewhere

<?php
session_start();
$exceptions = array('register','login');
$page = substr(end(explode('/', $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])),0, -4) ;
if (in_array($page, $exceptions) === false){
if(isset($_SESSION['username']) === false){
header{'Location: login.php');
die();
}
}
mysql_connect('server ip is entered in the real code', 'example_pass', 'example_pass');
mysql_select_db('username_user_system');
$path = dirname(_FILE_);
include("{path}/inc/user.inc.php");
?>
There you go. I double checked it but couldn't seem to find any errors. But it seems I'm bad at spotting "{" so I might've overlooked something.

$path = dirname(_FILE_);
should be
$path = dirname(__FILE__);
btw.
And
header{'Location: login.php');
You have a { here where a ( should be. Hard to spot !

Hmm. I fixed both of these errors but I'm still getting the error message. All of the brackets are closed it seems, I'm stumped.
<?php
session_start();
$exceptions = array('register','login');
$page = substr(end(explode('/', $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])),0, -4) ;
if (in_array($page, $exceptions) === false){
if(isset($_SESSION['username']) === false){
header('Location: login.php');
die();
}
}
mysql_connect('ip address', 'example_pass', 'example_pass');
mysql_select_db('username_user_system');
$path = dirname(__FILE__);
include("{path}/inc/user.inc.php");
?>

Your missing a $ in your {path} should be {$path}
Thats the only error i can spot.

What is the error now ?, the missing $ should not cause a parse error. IT would cause the file not to be included though.

Well now I have like 8 different errors though I'm able to get to the register and login pages. The errors messages are just displayed on the page, it's odd.
