How do I get the van to shift into park? Is this a gear shift or transmission problem?

All of a sudden, when parking my van would not shift into park! It will shift into neutral, drive and reverse. It will continue to roll when in drive or reverse even though the parking brake is on.

best thing is to stop at transmission shop and have it diagnosed.
