I don't know, where did I make mistake. I am unable to view the details page in the browser. I watched the tutorial video, but couldn't know that what was the mistake. I am pasting the details.php below. Please help....
<?php include("inc/data.php"); include("inc/functions.php");
if (isset($_GET["id"])) { $id = $_GET["id"]; if (isset($catalog[$id])) { $item = $catalog[$id]; } }
if(!isset($item)) { header("location:catalog.php"); exit; }
$pageTitle = $item["title"]; $section = null;
include("inc/header.php"); ?>
<div class="section page">
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="media-picture">
<span>
<img src="<?php echo $item["img"]; ?>" alt="<?php echo $item["title"]; ?>" />
</span>
</div>
<div class="media-details">
<h1><?php echo $item["title"]; ?></h1>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Category</th>
<td><?php echo $item["category"]; ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>Genre</th>
<td><?php echo $item["genre"]; ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>Format</th>
<td><?php echo $item["format"]; ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>Year</th>
<td><?php echo $item["year"]; ?></td>
</tr>
<?php if (strtolower($item["category"]) == "books") { ?>
<tr>

if( condition ) :
//your code
endif;

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 8,110 PointsHi Shane..
Presently I am pursuing the "Integrating PHP with databases" course. Again and again I am stuck at different points in the course. And it takes a lot of time in finding the mistake.
So can you please provide me the completed project file of "Integrating PHP with databases" course.
Thank you.
