Hi wondered if someone could help me out.

I know the basics of phpnuke, but wanted to edit the review module index.php file.
Basically i run a hardware review site and users have said that navigating through the review module searching for products reviews can be very difficult if they don't know the specific name of an item.

I have created a bog standard review categories module to make searching our reviews database a lot easier. I am still using the reviews module but wanted to change the link at the bottom of each review that says "Return to main" as when clicked it takes users back to the original review layout (whereby reviews are listed by 10 most popular and 10 most recent)

I have gone in to the review module's index.php file to find where i would change this so that users are taken to the new categories. I presume it is something to do with this line (under Function_Reviews):
echo "[ <a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name\">"._RETURN2MAIN."</a> ]";
   CloseTable();

When i change the url to that of the new module index i have created i get parse errors. Any help would be great.

Also, as stated i have created a blank module with an index.php file within to display my new review categories, the only problem i have is that i am not brilliant with phpnuke coding and so the whole thing is made up of html table code. Updating this every time i have a new review means acessing the index.php file and adding in the strings of html code then re-uploading it.

If anyone knows of a way this could be simplified or can help with the creation of a better review catgories your help would be greatly apreciated and wouldn't go un-noticed.
the new review categories i created can be found here:

Post what you tryed adding. A parse error is generally just a miscode.

Hi
Thanks for all your help.
I have added you to msn. I do apologise for the late reply, but running a review site is a 24hr a day job.

To change the link that the return to main goes to i did this:

echo "[ <a href=\"modules.php?name=$module_name\">"._RETURN2MAIN."</a> ]";
   CloseTable();


echo "[ <a href=\"modules.php?op=modload&name=Categories&file=index">"._RETURN2MAIN."</a> ]";
   CloseTable();


thanks for all your help it is greatly apreciated.

Does anyone know if there is an easier way to do the review categories as at the moment the whole thing is inside an index.php file with me adding a string of html underneath each category header each time a new review is completed.
This results in me having to consistently update the index.php with reams of html then re-uploading it to save the changes. With 47 reviews in the database, the index.php is getting pretty full already, making updating very confusing.

thanks for all your help
