Ajax, unexpected symbol?

Question

I am using ajax to make my website's menu bar, but the menu doesn't show and I get this error:

PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '[' in /home/mtahayac/public_html/ajax/ajax_render_menu.php on line 8

Here is the code:

equire_once("../functions/functions_logs.php");
//require_once '../functions/functions_player.php';
//Main menu
$menu = array();
//Home
array_push($menu, ["Home", "index.php", "_self"]);
//Forums
array_push($menu, ["Forums", "http://forum.mydomain.com", "_blank"]);
array_push($menu, ["Refer a friend", "refer-a-friend.php", "_self"]); //Referrer
//UCP
if(isset($_SESSION['username']) ){
    array_push($menu, ["UCP", "ucp.php", "_self"]);
}
//Logs
if(isset($_SESSION['groups']) and canUserAccessLogs($_SESSION['groups'])){
    array_push($menu, ["Logs", "logs.php", "_self"]);
}

//Library
array_push($menu, ["Library", "library.php", "_self"]);
array_push($menu, ["Statistics", "stats.php", "_self"]);
array_push($menu, ["Support Center", "support.php", "_self"]);
//Donate
array_push($menu, ["Donate", "donate.php", "_self"]);

if(!isset($_SESSION['username']) or !$_SESSION['username']){
    array_push($menu, ["Register", "register.php", "_self"]); //Register
}

Any ideas?

Thanks.

What version of PHP are you running? < 5.4 doesn't support short hand arrays. http://php.net/manual/en/migration54.new-features.php — chris85, Oct 05 '15 at 23:12
`equire_once("../functions/functions_logs.php");`? First line? — aldrin27, Oct 05 '15 at 23:13
A sidenote, be careful of using `and` and `or` http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2803321/and-vs-as-operator — rjdown, Oct 05 '15 at 23:17
https://3v4l.org/IQHGG - you're using an old PHP. change your arrays to `array()` syntax. — I wrestled a bear once., Oct 05 '15 at 23:20
Now I get this error: syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting ')' in /home/mtahayac/public_html/ajax/ajax_render_menu.php on line 8 — GeorgeDG, Oct 05 '15 at 23:33
Did you do `array_push($menu, array("Home", "index.php", "_self"));` — chris85, Oct 05 '15 at 23:44
