possible problem with switch command

SiNiStEr_NaTiOn2

I need help with a switch command. I keeping getting a parse error that points at the end end of the script. That's why it says possible problem with the switch.

here the content.php

<?php
function storeCategory(){
$category = array(
0 => array("id" => 0, "name" => "Home", "page"=> "main.php"),
1 => array("id" => 1, "name" => "Birthday", "page"=> "bday.php"),
2 => array("id" => 2, "name" => "Anniversary", "page"=> "anniv.php"),
3 => array("id" => 3, "name" => "Wedding", "page"=> "wedding.php"),
4 => array("id" => 4, "name" => "Funeral", "page"=> "funeral.php"),
5 => array("id" => 5, "name" => "Love & Romance", "page"=> "l&r.php"),
6 => array("id" => 6, "name" => "All", "page"=> "all.php"),
7 => array("id" => 7, "name" => "Balloons", "page"=> "ball.php"),
8 => array("id" => 8, "name" => "Plants", "page"=> "plant.php"),
9 => array("id" => 9, "name" => "Contact", "page"=> "contact.php"),
);
return $category;
}

function getContent($id){
$content = storeCategory();
for($x=0; $x<sizeof($content); $x++){
if (rtrim(ltrim($content[$x]["id"])) == $id){
$print_content = rtrim(ltrim($content[$x]["page"]));
}
return $print_content;
}

switch ($x){
case Home:
include ('main.php');
break;
case Birthday:
include ('bday.php');
break;
case Anniversary:
include ('anniv.php');
break;
case Wedding:
include ('wedding.php');
break;
case Funeral:
include ('funeral.php');
break;
case Love & Romance:
include ('l&r.php');
break;
case All:
include ('all.php');
break;
case Balloons:
include ('ball.php');
break;
case Plants:
include ('plant.php');
break;
case Contact:
include ('contact.php');
break;
}
?>

and here's my menu.php

<?php
echo "<a href=\"".$PHP_SELF."?show=($id)\">Home</a><br />";

echo "<a href=\"".$PHP_SELF."?show=($id)\">Birthday</a><br />";

echo "<a href=\"".$PHP_SELF."?show=($id)\">Anniversary</a><br />";

echo "<a href=\"".$PHP_SELF."?show=($id)\">Wedding</a><br />";

echo "<a href=\"".$PHP_SELF."?show=($id)\">Funeral</a><br />";

echo "<a href=\"".$PHP_SELF."?show=($id)\">Love & Romance</a><br />";

echo "<a href=\"".$PHP_SELF."?show=($id)\">All Occassion</a><br />";

echo "<a href=\"".$PHP_SELF."?show=($id)\">Balloons</a><br />";

echo "<a href=\"".$PHP_SELF."?show=($id)\">Plants</a><br />";

echo "<a href=\"".$PHP_SELF."?show=($id)\">Contact Us</a><br />";

?>

I been looking over the content.php several times the past couple of days and just can't locate the problem.

Is there anything in the content.php script that I could of left out and on the side not I'm a newb to php and doing my best to build with php.

Your case statements should have quotes if they aresn't numbers. Might not be the cause of your error, but it should be done...

case Home:
should be
case "Home":

ok I fixed that little typo on my part. I had find the parse error, forgot to add } at the end, had 3{ and only 2}. I just love simple typos like these. lol

Is the $id array setup properly? the reason I'm asking is because the main.php isn't coming up when I check the site out. Vistors to the site should see the main.php, the $id is 0 as you can see in the first thread.

the index.php is setup as the following

<?php
	include ('header.php');
	include ('body.php');
	include ('footer.php');
?>

The body.php sets up the body of the web page minus the site logo(which is being handle by the header.php) and the counter(that's being handle by the footer.php). So the body handles the middle stuff in between the header and footer.

here's the body.php

<?php

echo '
<table width="100%" border="1">
<tr>
<td width="15%">';

include ('menu.php');

echo '</td>
<td valign="top" width="83%">';

include ('content.php');

echo '</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>';

?>

the content and menu php is in the first thread with the correction in the case groups.
