I was trying to recreate a menu part in a new module that I am tring to work on. What I am tring to do is make 1 blook in the module and it has info in it Like a little menu then call another file into another block below the first one and keep the menu block. An example of what i am trying to do is here at www.dragonsperch.easywayhost.com/ddo/index.php click on GW_Skills and you will see the block that I am tring to recreate. Then click on the gw_armor and you can see what I am getting in result when I try it. any help with this would be greatfull.

Also I am having issues with changing the button below each picture. I am tring to change them to call a file but I can not get it to work it keeps telling me there is an error at that like when I change it to pull up another file.

I got the first part to workbut still have issues with one more the code is posted a little father down in here

I can't see what the problem is you're trying to describe. The only difference I can see between GW Armour and GW Skills is that you forgot to add OpenTable() and CloseTable() in the Armour module...

Thanks I got that part to work, But how can I get the buttons to bring in a external file in to another block below that one with out having to use SQL data base. Everytiime I change it to link to a file it will cause an error.

I don't really understand what you're trying to do...

So far here is the code I have:

<?php

if (!defined('MODULE_FILE')) {
die ("You can't access this file directly...");
}
require_once("mainfile.php");
$module_name = basename(dirname(__FILE__));
get_lang($module_name);

/**********************************/
/* Configuration */
/* You can change this: */
/* $index = 0; (right side off) */
/**********************************/
$index = 0;

include("header.php");
$cookie[0] = intval($cookie[0]);
Opentable();
$form_block = "

}
$Class_Choice = "0";
?>

What I am tring to do is this for example:

got 4 buttons each one assigned a value

button 1 = value of "elementalist"
Button 2 = value of "warrior"
button 3 = value of "Necro"
Button 4 = value of "Rit"

now when button 1 is pressed it bring up a (sub)menu below
(each button in the 1st menu has the same (sub)menu buttons)

button 5 = value of "prophecies"
Button 6 = value of "factions"
button 7 = value of "nightfall"

(now this is were I am having problems)

Then when the (sub)menu button 5 is pressed it brings up related info for the 1st and 2nd button that was pressed

so in the short if I want info on Elementalist armor in prophecies i would click the button for elementalist then click the sub menu button for prophecies and get a list armor for that particular class. then say I wanted to see another one I would click on Warrior button then click the submenu button of prophecies and it would display armor for a warrior in prophecies.
