Help with Page Design

pcxgamer · #1 25-Nov-2003, 18:09

I'm working on my site and I need a little help with the front page. I would like something similar to the front page here; I want to display my news on the center portion of the page and a navigation bar to the right. But I'm not sure how to de that and need a little advice.

Thanks

Ok I finally got the site the way that I think I would like it but when I try and pull my news script in I can see the news but above the news I see an error. Here my HTML

HTML Code:


<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body bgcolor="#000000" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" text="#FFFFFF">
<img src="logo2.gif">
<table width="100%" height="100%" border="0">
  <tr> 
    <td width="13%" align="center" valign="top">
      NAV
	  </td>
    <td width="87%"><?PHP include ("news.php"); ?></td>
  </tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

and here the error I getting.

Warning: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/virtual/site228/fst/var/www/html/index.php:15) in /home/virtual/site228/fst/var/www/html/news.php on line 1

I'm not too good with PHP yet so I'm not to sure about this error.

Thanks for any help.

I have found this information.

Quote:

Cause
The PHP function such as headers(), used with start_session(), produces HTML headers. When the PHP fragments are placed in the body of the HTML, this causes errors because the PHP fragments are trying to put HTML headers within the HTML body.
Solution
Put the PHP fragments before the HTML body tag.

What I need to know how can I put this php in my html in the header section?

Maybe there is a problem with your news.php script? Post the code to that, maybe JdS would know

Ok here's the php code.

OK PCX, I didn't look beyond the first line of your news script above.

To fix this quickly and quite simply; you just add ob_start() to the top of your web page; example:

PHP Code:


<?php
ob_start();
?>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body bgcolor="#000000" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" text="#FFFFFF">
<img src="logo2.gif">
<table width="100%" height="100%" border="0">
  <tr> 
    <td width="13%" align="center" valign="top">
      NAV
    </td>
    <td width="87%"><?PHP include ("news.php"); ?></td>
  </tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Oh my thank you a million times. Why did that work? Thank you

pcxgamer · #8 27-Nov-2003, 05:19

Ok now that I have that done. Thanks J, I need to know my page uses tables you can see the script above. What I would like to do is be able to click on the link in the side bar and it open on the same table that the news script is on. I hope this is understandable if not I'll try to explain it better. Thanks for any help.

C:\Documents and Settings\Brian\My Documents\bbfdd.html well that is what im getting andthe only suggestion niow is why is the tiltle tag inside the heading? That becomes part of the heading then. So take it out

what do u want? to make a link toanother page its the same the tag link tag only specify what document u want to be inserted instead of url. Open it on the same table? Just code it so its the same. What is the NAV in that code it sticks out? Not to mention there is no nav bar. the
