Ok, so the assignment is to make a program that lets the user display 3 different kinds of greeting trees. My teacher gave us part of the code and i dont think I quite filled it in right.
Heres the link to how it should work: http://gaia.ecs.csus.edu/~mei/10/LPA/LPA4/Greeting_tree.php
And my broken code part 1:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Happy Holidays from Csc10</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY bgcolor="#BDEDFF">
<H2>Season's Greetings from Csc10</H2>
<?php
/*
The holidays are just around the corner and we probably have not bought gifts for our family yet. So why not give
them the gift of programming! With such functions as being able to put out a traditionally colored tree, a sac state
tree for all our fans out there, and my own personal favorite colors.
*/
include_once("gt_functions.php");
# MAIN-PROGRAM
$title = "Season's Greetings from Csc10";
html_begin ($title, $title);
if ($submit)
{
{
//set up the data in a 2-dimensional array to mark the background
$A = array(array("0","0","0","0","0","0","0","0","0","0","0"),
