stupid question-I suck

[Anon]

I need to know how to make a script for a menu, so that I can jsut edit the file to change the menu everywhere it's installed. I suck at php.

Just put the menu in a seperate file and "include" it into your pages.

I usually put the entire menu into a <table> tag and save it as "menu.inc.php" then use the following code at the exact spot I want the menu to appear:

include('/path to file/menu.inc.php');

Hope this helps. 🙂

Yeah, but what do I include in the actual "menu.inc.php"? that's what I'm
haveng problems with. It comes up with "
Parse error: parse error, expecting ','' or';'' in /var/www/hosting/bleedingmonkey/html/clay/menu.php on line 3"

Send me the code via e-mail that is in your menu file and I'd be happy to tell you (or include it in the reply here if it is short enough).

I would make sure you don't have any obvious errors like missing a closing semi-colon after every php line of code and make sure you have your opening and closing php tags as well. (<?php and ?>)
