Okay so maybe I jumped the gun, now it is working okay... maybe it is still in transition... still lots to work on though!

I was asking because i could already see your header before, and i was wondering which page had the problem.

Hi Navaldesign

I have made few menus on my site and they are working great. Now I'm trying to create another one following the same procedure, but I keep getting an error message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: articles_menu() in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/laminate_flooring_installation.php on line 67

Any ideas what this means or where I went wrong?

Thank you
Mike

Yes This is the page, but I removed the menu last night after many attempt. I will put it back on so you can see.

Please post here the code of your "articles_menu.php" page

matrixxxxxx1 · #**219** 03-25-2007, 03:09 PM

This is the code

<?php
include ("articles_menu.php");
articles_menu();
?>

The page I published is www.atexflooring.ca/articles_menu.php

Hey Navaldesign

It's ok. I got it sorted out. I copied and pasted it the html box from a previous menu and forgot to change the name in the start of the page, which is your step 2 "
<? function menu() { ?>
it should've benn <? function articles_menu() { ?>

Hi, I have read through this thread and nothing is changing on my site.

Here is my site: www.industrialsuppliesandservices.com

The menu bar you see on the left is the same one that is on the menu page you said I should make.
Could this be the problem: instead of creating a blank page I cloned my index page and just deleted everything on it except for the navigation bar and renamed it "menu" page. Also that navigation bar is not made from the menu bar icon but is just shape boxes with text.
Not even the "test number 2" which is on their is gone which I removed.

Thanks much,
Randy

What is the page that is calling the menu.php page ?

lunatunes · #**223** 04-12-2007, 03:44 PM

I put the html block with the code inside to call the menu page on my index page and the blasting abrasives page. The link to which is found on the abrasives page just below the header.

Thanks,
Randy

Can anyone help me? I dont know where to start in solving this problem

Thanks,

"Ok, you are done. I’ll just take a minute to explain what you have done: You have created a menu bar. The php code you have placed in this page, has defined the html code of this page, as a php function, named “menu”. Then, in the main page, you are calling this page, and then, you just call the function “menu”, which creates the menubar in your page"

What do you mean by the main page? Do you mean my home page or the index page?

This whole sentence is very confusing: Then, in the main page, you are calling this page, and then, you just call the function “menu”, which creates the menubar in your page"

Could you explain this.....Please!

Thanks,
Randy

Ok!!! I got it all figured out and working. The key was to read the entire thread....ooops :)

I simply had to go into my control panel and delete the old files plus change my link extensions to php. Didn't realize I had to do that.
Good thing I'm just starting this site.

Question about my navigation bar: It's not a BV menu bar. Its just text links on a background. Would I still be better off using a CSS text menu bar for SE purposes. Here is the link: www.industrialsuppliesandservices.com

Also I read that SE dont like the BV drop down menu. Does that go for CSS drop down menus also.

This forum and the help it gives is like nothing Ive seen.
Thanks Blue voda

A text menu is the same (as SE are concernes) as a CSS based text menu. And, it is the best solution for SE.
