Cannot Redeclare madness!

[loteck]

The error looks like this:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare display_categories() (previously declared in C:\web\output_fns.php:3) in C:\web\output_fns.php on line 3

I've googled and searched here to little avail. If i simply take out that display_categories function from output_fns, it gives me the same error on the next function in output_fns.

Any ideas? Thanks..

It sounds to me like your functions are being loaded twice...so check the flow of your PHP script and any included files it calls!

Perhaps if you can post the source of the page you're trying to view it might give us some ideas?

Strange how these things can all of a sudden just come to you.

The output_fns file actually has no includes. However it IS an include for another file that i put includes to all my function files in, so that i can easily include only that 1 file and have it handle all my function files (did that make any sense?).

Anyways, i figured out i had included output_fns in another one of my function files that is also being included in my main "include fuctions" file, so that i was ultimately calling output_fns twice. I changed one of them over to include_once and i'm set to go.

It's too early for me to be able to tell whether this response is coherent or readable in any way. Thanks for the suggestion, it most definitely helped me find the problem.
