trying to add some text to an index.php page

Involved Joined: Apr 22, 2006 Posts: 356

I am trying to add a few lines of text to the index.php page of Asers shop module. I really would like it in its own "table" but not sure about that either. Anyhow I have this statement:

echo "Right now we are placing orders in batches. This means you will have until May 11 to order for the first round. After that date we will send them in for printing. Right now we are giving 2-4 weeks total for ordering the shirts, having them printed and delivery. THANKS!";

I have tried to put it in several places, one being right under the module logo but the text never shows. It is like I did not change anything.

What am I doing wrong please?

Thanks.

Replace this entire function with the one below. It works flawlessly.

Code:

function menu($mainproduct) {


    global $module_name, $user;


    OpenTable();


    $ThemeSel = get_theme();


    if (file_exists("themes/$ThemeSel/images/shop-logo.gif")) {


   echo "<br><center><a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name\"><img src=\"themes/$ThemeSel/images/shop-logo.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Aser's Shop\"></a><br><br>";


    } else {


   echo "<br><center><a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name\"><img src=\"modules/$module_name/images/shop-logo.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Aser's Shop\"></a><br><br>";


    }


    echo "<center><a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name&amp;s_op=viewcart\"><img src = \"modules/$module_name/images/your_cart.gif\" border =\"0\"></a>";


    if(is_user($user)) {


       echo "&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name&amp;s_op=vieworders\"><img src = \"modules/$module_name/images/your_orders.gif\" border =\"0\"></a>";


    }


    echo "</center>";


    SearchForm();


    echo "<font class=\"content\">[ ";


    if ($mainproduct>0) {


   echo "<a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name\">"._ASERSHOPMAIN."</a> | ";


    }


    echo "<a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name&amp;s_op=NewProducts\">"._NEW."</a>"


   ." | <a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name&amp;s_op=MostPopular\">"._POPULAR."</a>"


   ." | <a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name&amp;s_op=TopRated\">"._TOPRATED."</a> ]"


   ."</font></center>";


    CloseTable();


    echo "<p>";


    OpenTable();


echo "Right now we are placing orders in batches. This means you will have until May 11 to order for the first round. After that date we will send them in for printing. <br /><br />Right now we are giving 2-4 weeks total for ordering the shirts, having them printed and delivery.<br /><br />THANKS!";  


    CloseTable();


}

Thanks Jaded!!

Looks great. Just a question. Why would the echo statement not work before when I tried to put it under the aser logo?

You are welcome and I am not sure because I do not know where exactly you tried to use it.

I tried to put it right after this statement

echo " <center><a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name\"><img src=\"themes/$ThemeSel/images/shop-logo.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Aser's Shop\"></a> ";

Thanks.
