Fatal error: Cannot redeclare top() (previously declared in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/newapproach/utils/head.php:3) in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/newapproach/utils/head.php on line 62

The code is:

<?php 
include 'nav.php';
function top($location, $pagename, $name, $seclevel, $slider, $fancy){
    $pre = '';
    if ($location == 1){
        $pre = '../';
    }
    if ($name) {
        $navedit = navnon($location1);
    }else{
        $navedit = navuser($username, $location1);
    }
    $text = '<!Doctype HTML>
    <html>
    <head>
    '.logo().'
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="'.$pre.'css/nav.css" />';
    if ($slider){
        $text .= '<link rel="stylesheet" href="'.$pre.'css/flexslider.css" type="text/css">';
    }
    if ($fancy){
        $text .= '<link rel="stylesheet" href="'.$pre.'fancy/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />';
    }
    $text .= '<title>ABI 2015 - '.$pagename.'</title>
    <script src="'.$pre.'js/jquery.min.js"></script>';

    if($slider){
        $text .= '<script src="'.$pre.'js/jquery.flexslider.js"></script>';
    }
    if ($fancy){
        $text .= '<script type="text/javascript" src="'.$pre.'/fancy/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.pack.js"></script>';
    }
    $text .= '<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function(){
        $("a#ex").click(function(){
            alert(unescape("Dies ist ein Externer Link die WEB-seite %FCbernimmt keine Verantwortung f%FCr externe Links und die Inhalte auf den verlinkten Seite."));
        });';
    if ($slider){
        $text .= '  $(".flexslider").flexslider({
            animation: "fade",
            animationLoop: true,
            slideshow:true,
            controlNav:false,
        });';
    }
    if ($fancy){
        $text .= '$("a.inline").fancybox({
                "hideOnContentClick": false;
            });';
    }
    $text .= '});
    </head>
    <body id="bg">
    <div id="feedback"><a href="'.$pre.'html/feedback.html"><img src="'.$pre.'pic/feedback.png"/></a></div>
    '.$navedit.'
        <div id="line">';   
    return $text;
}
?>

You're probably declaring the function multiple times -- check `nav.php`. — Amal Murali, Oct 05 '13 at 17:24
Your nav.php or head.php probably already contains a function named `top()` - rename one of them. — Quasdunk, Oct 05 '13 at 17:25

Seems like you have already declared the function top() in your nav.php file.

Just call it. You dont have to declare it again.

Error message states that top() was previously declared in head.php file. – Jacek Barecki Oct 05 '13 at 17:31
Yeah right. nav.php must be holding head.php inside it. – Shankar Narayana Damodaran Oct 05 '13 at 17:32
