[SOLVED] absoloute novice needs help

[herghost]

Hi all, I am installing a script and am having a bit of a problem.

 

Im am getting this error in ie

 

Fatal error: Call to undefined function db_connect() in /home/bromi/public_html/book.php on line 26

 

on a page but it does not appear when the page is viewed in flock/firefox.

 

the page is www.bromientertainment.co.uk/book.php, which is a copy of www.bromientertainment.co.uk/index.php which pulls a php page called maincontent.php. I basically want to keep the layout of the index but with different content. So I copied all the code in the original maincontent.php and renamed and placed it in the same directory. So when /index1.php is called it should load the file in book.php (which is a copy of the maincontent.php page)

 

I think i need to define a global call but I dont know how to do this or where to do this! any help or hints would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

I think there is some path error in your page. Can you show your code.

Have you made a function called db_connect()?

Can you connect to mysql at all? See http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php/topic,95378.0.html

thanks for all your replies so quickly, I have worked it out it turns out I was trying to call book.php directly as opposed to calling index1.php .
