Creating a charts page

Hi, Im trying to create a seperate page where a pilot can click on a world map on hotspots for the airports so it brings up a page with all the charts for that airport.

Here is the process as i understand it.

Create a module “Charts”

<?php
class charts extends CodonModule
{

       public function index()
       {    
       Template::Show('charts.tpl');
       }
}

?>

I have created my charts.tpl which is in my skins folder

and obviously each airport needs its own template where i will display the chart links.

When i do this i get the module “charts” does not exists.error

Is there anything else i need to change.

I have checked the file exists in core/modules/charts and it is there.

Thanks in advance

Alex

Make sure you have the module file placed correctly -> core/modules/charts/charts.php

Class names in php are also very important. Make sure that the folder, file name and class name are all exactly the same, including capitalzation.

core/modules/Charts/charts.php with the class name Charts will not work in most cases

core/modules/Charts/Charts.php with class name as Charts is the accepted way to build classes within codon.

Thanks Dave,

It was the capitalisation of Charts.php that was missing i had charts.php

Works now, very fast response thanks
