PHP Drupal Basics Writing Modules Your First Module

Greetings module not linked from nav, and page shows Access Denied.

Here is my code:

function greeting_menu() {
    $items = array();
    $items['hello_friend'] = array(
            'title' => "Hello friend!",
            'page_callback' => 'say_hello',
            'access_callback' => TRUE,
            'type' => MENU_NORMAL_ITEM,
    );
    return $items;
}

function say_hello() {
    return '<p>Hello my dear friend.</p>';
}

I followed the steps as shown in the video, and the module is enabled without errors, but the module isn't linked from the homepage as it is in the tutorial, and going to the page directly shows Access Denied. Any ideas?

Ah nevermind -- it should be 'page callback' and 'access callback', not with underscores.
