Hey All.

I'm trying to create a 'About Us' page including header and footer, but i'm having a few problems..

I picked up some coding from here: http://www.usebb.net/community/topic-1996.html

And i'm stuck when it comes to using $template->add_raw_content();

I get this error:

E_WARNING - Missing argument 1 for template::add_raw_content(), called in about.php on line 15 and defined

Heres the code i'm using:

<?
define('INCLUDED', false);
define('ROOT_PATH', './');
require(ROOT_PATH.'sources/common.php');

$template->add_raw_content();
$session->update('PageAbout');
require(ROOT_PATH.'sources/page_head.php');
$template->set_page_title($lang['PageAbout']);
?>

Content Here .......

<?
require(ROOT_PATH.'sources/page_foot.php');
?>

Please could someone point me in the right direction?

The $template->add_raw_content() function is where you would place your content.

See:

<?
define('INCLUDED', false);
define('ROOT_PATH', './');
require(ROOT_PATH.'sources/common.php');

$session->update('PageAbout');
require(ROOT_PATH.'sources/page_head.php');
$template->set_page_title($lang['PageAbout']);

//Your content goes inside the function
$template->add_raw_content('Content Here....');

$template->add_raw_content('More content...');

require(ROOT_PATH.'sources/page_foot.php');
?>

Ah now i see how it's done. Thanks tons for the help Gaia, all is working ok now

Hey guys can you tell me how to do this I used the source code above it and it wont work.. i get this error

E_NOTICE - Undefined index: PageAbout

It's most likely due to this line:

$template->set_page_title($lang['PageAbout']);

Make sure you add the variable PageAbout to your language file, or change it to something else:

$template->set_page_title('Your Page Title');

that fixed it i get how it works now thanks!

oh wait actually i just noticed something all the text seems to be centered im not sure why is there a way for it not to be centered?

I wouldn't be able to say, the above code doesn't have any type of center declarations. Either post the code you have, or provide a link to the page.

Try changing it to this:

//Your content goes inside the function
$template->add_raw_content('<table width="98%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="12" style="border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;text-align:left;"><tr><td bgcolor="#EFF2F9">Welcome to Open Source Setup!
