I have a drop down menu created in an html file and when I include it into my php file and put them online the php file turns up blank. When I include the menu without the drop downs it loads properly. Is there something special I need to do in order to get this to work?
Sounds like you are trying to import raw HTML code into php. That won't work, as PHP doesn't understand HTML.
As an alternative use file() to load the file into an array, implode() it into a variable, then echo() the statement.
Hope this helps.
