Hi Ray
I have added details below, the error says its line 1 of index.php but that is the framework.php file.
I have been having issues with the extensions putting the code in unusual places and also with dreamweaver seeming to remove the first column of characters when I open them so I have been trying to resolve some of these issues manually.
I have opened all the included files in Sublime text but am unable to find any unmatched curly braces.
