details page wont show up.

Im trying to load to my localhost http://localhost:8888/details.php?id=101, but it wont show up. Is there anything wrong with my code?

<?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-picure">

        <span>
            <img src="<?php echo $item["img"]; ?>" alt="<?php echo $item["title]; ?>" />
        </span>
</div>
    </div>
</div>

I think you have a typo on this line:

<img src="<?php echo $item["img"]; ?>" alt="<?php echo $item["title]; ?>" />

Check your double and single quotes maybe.

Reviewing line by line and comparing really does help. I had the same issue, it was a simple syntax error, details.php?id=101 works now. I was missing $ in $id. Thanks Adam.
