PHP - What Am I Doing Wrong In My Functions File?

Hello.

The title is a little confusing, but:

What I am trying to do is build a simple CMS where all requests are routed through the root index.php file.

This file will be where all constants are defined and importantly where the database connection is estabilished.

There will be a folder where template files will reside and, based on the URI, a template file will be included into the root index.php file.

Here's some code:

Code: [Select]
<?php

//Sets the database connection and defines some constants
require ( "includes/config.php" );

//Where I will place the core functions of the CMS, one being the navigation builder
require ( "includes/functions.php" );

//Home page template file
require ( "views/cms/index.php" );

?>

So as you can see, I want to be able to call the navigation builder function, called "getMenuItems();", from the home page template.

However, I get the following error:

Code: [Select]
Fatal error: Call to undefined function getMenuItems() in C:\wamp\www\cms\views\cms\index.php on line 3
How can I access functions that have been defined in the "includes/functions.php" file, from the required template file "views/cms/index.php"?

If you need anything else explaining then please ask. If this has already been posted, I apologise in advance! I have searched Google and the forums but nothing turned up.

So, I'm learning how to upload pictures into a system from my awesome PHP book. I've looked and looked through the script but I can't figure out whats wrong with it.

Goal:
The script is meant to save a full version of the image in the images folder and a thumbnail in the thumbnail folder.
Bug:
The full image does not appear in any folder, and the thumbnail is created but its put in the images folder.

I've checked the GD library, and everything is supported.

Any help appreciated.

I have couple jquery codes in a single file:

$(document).ready(function(){

 $('#all').delegate('a.link', 'click', function(){
   //more code here
 })

 $('body').delegate('.nice', 'click', function(){
  //more code here
 })

});

This works great but is it better to close each function using ; symbol? Even if I do or not the code works ok, BUT whats the correct way?

Hello everyone,
I am not sure if I am supposed to post this here but I have a problem with a php file of my wordpress site.
Let me insert the code becaus I have no idea what is the problem -     $file_data = fread( $fp, 8 * 'KB_IN_BYTES' );  where the problem shows

function get_file_data( $file, $default_headers, $context = '' ) {
    // We don't need to write to the file, so just open for reading.
    // Pull only the first 8 KB of the file in.
    $file_data = fread( $fp, 8 * 'KB_IN_BYTES' ); 
    // PHP will close file handle, but we are good citizens.
    // Make sure we catch CR-only line endings.
    $file_data = str_replace( "\r", "\n", $file_data );

    /**
     * Filters extra file headers by context.
     *
     * The dynamic portion of the hook name, `$context`, refers to
     * the context where extra headers might be loaded.
     *
     * @since 2.9.0
     *
     * @param array $extra_context_headers Empty array by default.
     */

I recently migrated from Windows XP to Windows 7, and a PHP package I depend on (mPDF, see http://www.mpdf1.com/mpdf) stopped working. When I call one of its necessary functions, it hangs.

I investigated further and found that the crash was happening in a call to file_get_contents, given one parameter, a URL that points to a CSS file.

I found that the file_get_contents and file functions both crash when given a URL. Both work normally when given a pathname on the local file system.

As I understand it, these functions are supposed to accept a URL if the INI directive allow_url_fopen is enabled. I checked by calling ini_get; it is. In any case, the php.net description of fopen says that if that directive is disabled, "PHP will emit a warning and the fopen call will fail" -- not just hang!

It appears as if there is a glaring bug in one of PHP's core functions. I'm very skeptical that that is really the problem, but I don't know what else to suspect. Any ideas?

My configuration is Windows 7 Professional with SP1; Apache 2.2.17; PHP 5.2.17.

For reference, here is the script I used to investigate this problem. I stepped through it with a debugger, so I didn't bother displaying results. As shown, the script works. When I comment out the second assignment to $path it should produce identical results; instead it hangs.

Code: [Select]
<?php
$isopen = ini_get('allow_url_fopen');
$path = "http://localhost/pdf/cert.css";
$path = "D:/htdocs/pdf/cert.css";
$contents = file($path);
$contents = @file($path);
$contents = file_get_contents($path);
$contents = @file_get_contents($path);
?>
