yet another scriptpath problem

[bonewalker]

Hi Guys,

Ran into a snag. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

A few messages up you'll see one from me indicating you can actually use any suffix you need depending on how you're putting your menu together.

The quote above was true. I changed the extension of my menu_data to .php, then called that file, and the menu worked fine.

However, when I actually put some php code into the page, the menu does not appear, and I get no php error messages or anything.

Any ideas? My code is below:

Code: Select all

<?
include "dbconnect.php";
echo "file loaded";
$sql="select * from directories order by lname";
$result = db_query($sql); 
	while ($record = get_record($result))
	{
	$lname=$record[lname];
	$fname=$record[fname];
	$ext=$record[extension];
	$email=$record[email];
	$dept_id=$record[dept_id];
	$send_quote.= "aI(\"text=$lname,$fname $ext;url=mailto:$email;separatorsize=1;itemwidth=25;align=center\")";
	}
?>

aI("text=Joe Chapman - 355;separatorsize=1")

}

alignment="left";
aI("text=Joe Emerson - 510;separatorsize=1")
aI("text=Joan Emel - 457;separatorsize=1")
<?echo $send_quote;?>
}

I didn't post all the code. But you will notice the php script at the top that makes the database query and assigns the results to a variable called $send_quote. Under menu "e", I tried to echo $sendquote.

Thanks for any help.

Nevermind!

Solved my own problem.

I had forgotten to start a new line at the end of each item.

Great that you solved it yourself Not that we can't, but it's got to feel a lot better...
