Showing HTML elements based on PHP value

Question

The following code is not working, I was getting a white screen with it. Not sure what is wrong. Also, I wasn't sure if it would be better to pass $member_info to javascript and iterate through the html with jQuery?

PHP:

foreach($team_member as $member)
{
  $is_leader= false;
  if(naked_id($member->id) == naked_id($leader->id)){
     $is_leader = true;
  } 

  unset($member_data);
  $member_data->id =   $member->id;
  $member_data->leader = $is_leader;

  $member_info[] = $member_data;
}

HTML:

<?php foreach($member_info as $member) : ?>

    <?php if ( $member->leader == true ) : ?>

        <span id="team-leader">Team Leader</span>

    <?php else : ?>

        <span id="team-leader" style="display:none;">Team Leader</span>

    <?php endif ?>
<?php endforeach ?>

display errors on ? error reporting set to E_ALL ?

You need a colon after the foreach (in the HTML snippet you've given). As per the PHP Manual -

In each case, the basic form of the alternate syntax is to change the opening brace to a colon (:)

It would then become :

<?php foreach($member_info as $member) : ?>
