Editor-xtd button plugin
Posted: Thu Oct 28, 2010 11:21 am
Hi guys,
After several years of fascination with Joomla! I took the decision to get my hand dirty in code and programming. The last time when had written something that a computer can understand was for 8 bit computers when was teenager
. So i made free time and got into PHP - I loved it ! and consequently I bought a book (according to the authors) Professional guide to programming Joomla!. Everything was going fine up to the moment i decided to test the provided code. It was broken !!! 
a real "Professional guide" !
It is a Editor-xtd button plugin and that is the PHP code:
Here the xml file:
and that is the error:
How you can guess in is not about the plugin itself but it really bugs me why it breaks. According to the author that is legitimate way for writing an editor-xtd plugins -> Obviously not 
Any help highly appreciated
Thanks in advance
Cheers,
Guby
