Hi,
I am unable to get index.html to load in the browser after attempting to include/render it. I was stuck on this over a month ago, gave up and came back only to get stuck at the same spot again. Can anyone help me? Thanks.
Here is my code for index.php:
<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
date_default_timezone_set('America/Chicago');
use Monolog\Logger;
use Monolog\Handler\Streamhandler;
//$log = new Logger('name');
//$log->pushHandler(new StreamHandler('app.txt', Logger::WARNING));
//$log->addWarning('Foo');
$app = new \Slim\Slim();
$app->get '/', function() use ($app){
app->render 'index.html';
};
$app->get '/contact', function() use($app){
app->render 'contact.html'
};
$app->run();
MOD: edited to format code.

<?php
$app->get( '/', function() use ($app){
app->render 'index.html';
});
$app->get( '/contact', function() use($app){
app->render 'contact.html'
});
get is a method in the Slim class. It has to have () with information passed to the method contained within the ().

Courses Plus Student 17,967 PointsI made a number of changes to make it match my code that does work. I could not get it to work in Workspaces, but I did not do the project in Workspaces so there may be some installations that need to be done to work. Try this to see if it works for you. you will need to fork the snapshot with the link on the upper right of the snapshot.

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 32,425 PointsThanks for taking the time to help me try to figure this out. I did fork the snapshot and found that I am still unable to load the page. Maybe it is simply an issue with Workspace. Did you only make changes to index.php? What changes did you make?
I think that I may have to start over again from scratch (without Workspace) at this point. If it is working for you, it should also work for me. On the bright side, at least then I'll really retain what I have learned so far:-)
Cheers-

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 32,425 PointsThanks Ted. I have just tried that and after refreshing the workspace index.html will not load. Hmmmm....I cannot seem to figure out what the issue is.

Courses Plus Student 17,967 PointsIf you are working in Workspaces, please create a fork snapshot by opening the Workspace, clicking on the camera icon in the upper right corner, following the steps to create and open the snapshot. Then post the url here. I can then open the entire project and take a look.
If you are not working in Workspaces. please post the revised code in its entirety.
In looking at the code again, it appears we are both missing a semicolon after 'contact.html'. It should be 'contact.html';
