Hi.
I'm stuck on the Extra Credit challenge Alena Holligan has given us for this Stage.
https://teamtreehouse.com/library/build-a-basic-php-website
I've created a new file called about.php. Then I went to header.php and added this line:
<li class="about<?php if ($section == "about") { echo " on"; } ?>"><a href="about.php"></a></li>
I'm not sure how to create an icon, or to modify the CSS file to display it or make room for it in the menu.
Here's a snapshot of my workspace.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Treehouse TeacherTo add the word "About" you'll need to add it between the "a" tags.
<li class="about<?php if ($section == "about") { echo " on"; } ?>"><a href="about.php">About</a></li>
To add an image, you'll have to upload a new image and then change the CSS. In css/styles.css look at the following items for examples:
.header .nav li a {
....
}
Because we've use the same image in different position, we changed the position as follows:
.header .nav li.books a {background-position: 8px -5px;}
.header .nav li.movies a {background-position: 13px -105px;}
.header .nav li.music a {background-position: 15px -235px;}
.header .nav li.suggest a {background-position: 35px -340px;}

.header .nav .li.about a {background-position: 55px -450px;}
would that work?

Treehouse Teacherthere isn't an image for the about page, so you'd have to upload your own image if you want one
