call to undefined funtion in a file i never touched!

[Dragonmom]

i wanted to edit the reviews_write.php file to make a larger window- it was showing as 20 px wide by 40 high. When I saved the file to my server, I recieved this message on default.php;

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: tep_not_null() in /home/dragon/public_html/dragoncave/includes/functions/html_output.php on line 22

 

I looked at a fresh copy of the file and there is no change in it- What have I done, and how can I fix it?

The function is in general.php via application_top.php - make sure that application_top.php is included in the process - it is usually called at the top of the relevant file - in product_reviews _write.php it should be at the top of the page, though I would expect a session error first if its not :?

 

Hope this helps you track down the problem

Oh, Johnson, I was HOPING you were online! :lol:

okay, I'm going to see what I can find.

application_top is called for in reviews write... While you're here, how can I remove the stars ratings? I'd love to get rid of them.

Okay, by the ignoramus' method of restoring the reviews write, functions general, I got my site back- but whenI go anywhere away from default.php, I get this mesage:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/dragon/public_html/dragoncave/includes/functions/html_output.php:297) in /home/dragon/public_html/dragoncave/includes/functions/general.php on line 23

 

Now, usually that means there is some empty lines at the end of the file, but there isn't in this case? Do I look in application_top.php

There are three files I think that have this or similar:

 

catalog/reviews.php

catalog/product_reviews_info.php

catalog/includes/boxes/reviews.php

 

The following is from the latter - change:

 

 

    $info_box_contents[] = array('text' => '<div align="center"><a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS_INFO, 'products_id=' . $random_product['products_id'] . '&reviews_id=' . $random_product['reviews_id']) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $random_product['products_image'], $random_product['products_name'], SMALL_IMAGE_WIDTH, SMALL_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '</a></div><a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS_INFO, 'products_id=' . $random_product['products_id'] . '&reviews_id=' . $random_product['reviews_id']) . '">' . $review . ' ..</a><br><div align="center">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'stars_' . $random_product['reviews_rating'] . '.gif' , sprintf(BOX_REVIEWS_TEXT_OF_5_STARS, $random_product['reviews_rating'])) . '</div>');

 

to:

 

    $info_box_contents[] = array('text' => '<div align="center"><a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS_INFO, 'products_id=' . $random_product['products_id'] . '&reviews_id=' . $random_product['reviews_id']) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $random_product['products_image'], $random_product['products_name'], SMALL_IMAGE_WIDTH, SMALL_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '</a></div><a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS_INFO, 'products_id=' . $random_product['products_id'] . '&reviews_id=' . $random_product['reviews_id']) . '">' . $review . ' ..</a>');

 

As you can see, I just removed everything after the </a> tag (except closing brackets etc)

Its in html_output.php

thanks, Johnson- it turned out to be an empty line at the end of functions_general. Once again, the lesson is back-up, backup! It's the only thing that saves a dummy like me! Thanks for the code help, too.

As always, thank you for your patience and helpfulness. :)
