i'd like to know how u generate menus using php. is there an independent .php file exclusively for the menu? i ask this because i wanted to make some changes to the menu of a website and, in dreamweaver, when i was working on a particular page, i could read the code for the menu but i couldn't modify it.

You can include a separate PHP files or put the PHP code inline. I don't know how it is implemented in the page you have. Maybe post some code.

PS - Please write out words and capitalize properly. We have people from everywhere who contribute to this forum and we want posts to be as readable as possible. Thanks.

ok, I apologize. I was really tired when I posted the last message. I want to upload the code for one of the pages of the website, but it says here that .php, .txt, and .docx extensions are not allowed. so what extensions ARE allowed? I would paste the code inline, but it's a lot and I'm not sure if it's against the rules. I'll paste the top part, but I'm not sure it'll be of much help being incomplete.<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
