The herb store categories - list - view pages are finally working within the context of the Radiant Health page layout.
A few details to be addressed later:
On the dynamic horizontal nav, when one of the pages in the nav list is active, the list seems to expand, shoving the last item in the list into a smaller space. When the 'contact' page is activated from the footer, the horizontal nav at the top looks correct.
The date issue, called from the footer, is still unresolved. I get an error saying that it's dangerous to use the server to get the date. For now I just wrote in the year. I can always just get it through javascript if I can't get the php to work. I do agree that there is a danger that on the last day of the year, people around the world could get the wrong date using php, but somehow that doesn't make me shudder.
The side nav is not dynamic. It would have taken more coding to fit a dynamic side nave into the table-based layout I had to use. I could do it, but it's working, there is no time left, and for this site, a dynamic nav probably isn't necessary anyway.
I had to rebuild this site from the bottom up in order to make it work. The div based layout I had originally designed kept breaking. Also I didn't know how to get the old-fashioned javascript mouseover side nav they want to work with the php. Before actual deployment, I'm going to have to make these elements work together or come up with compromises.
Left to do is the spreadsheet documentation, catch up to the login assignments. then spend a similar amount of time catching up on ASPnet assignments.
Hours spent on this: 10 on Saturday, 8 on Sunday, 4 on Monday.

Dave,
On your 'date' warning, did you add the following code to your configINC.php:
/**
* Set default date/time for this website
*/
date_default_timezone_set('America/Los_Angeles');
Some of us were getting error messages, so this was what kept that problem silent.
It is an odd one, because it doesn't happen on all student's pages.
Let me know if that helps!
Bill
