I'm having problem with pulling pages content from database

[malma]

I think now i'm becoming a familier with asking endlessly but please don't get tired of me.

Right now i'm having another problem;

I am to make the pages content from database appear on my localhost website but I don't know if i'm making mistakes somewhere.

Please take a look on my codes.

  }

The underlined <div class="page-content> is not working, maybe I mased up my codes somewhere.

Thanks for your help.....

put some debugging in there to see if you reach that block as you've got a few if conditions prior

        <div class="page-content">
          <?php echo "<h1>IN HERE</h1><pre>".print_r($sel_page,1); ?>
        </div>

Thank you so much Joel24 for your advice but still not working, I just copped and paste the all php code as you wrote it.

Although I am very new to php, I did notice you didnt wrap the function in <?php  FUNCTION CODE ?>

 

here is the code with it
