Workspaces not corresponding with video in Integrating 'PHP with Databases' Course - Querying Multiple Tables with JOIN

When I opened the new workspaces to work alongside Alena, the code in functions.php did not correspond with that being shown in the video. Here is what was showing for me:

<?php
function get_item_html($id,$item) {
    $output = "<li><a href='details.php?id="
        . $id . "'><img src='" 
        . $item["img"] . "' alt='" 
        . $item["title"] . "' />" 
        . "<p>View Details</p>"
        . "</a></li>";
    return $output;
}

function array_category($catalog,$category) {
    $output = array();

    foreach ($catalog as $id => $item) {
        if ($category == null OR strtolower($category) == strtolower($item["category"])) {
            $sort = $item["title"];
            $sort = ltrim($sort,"The ");
            $sort = ltrim($sort,"A ");
            $sort = ltrim($sort,"An ");
            $output[$id] = $sort;            
        }
    }

    asort($output);
    return array_keys($output);
}

The workspace should be fixed now. If you delete your workspace (https://teamtreehouse.com/workspaces) for the course and relaunch a new workspace it should be corrected now

Not sure what the problem was, but I was able to get this fixed and creating new workspaces correctly now. Let me know if you continue to have issues. Just in case, you can also download the project files.

I'm having the same issue as above. I deleted the old workspace, but when I launch workspaces again, it shows the same code in functions.php as at the top of this page.

I imagine the issue didn't flag up straight away because it was resolved initially and I didn't actually follow this up. My apologies all!

Sorry Filipe, I somehow missed the notification until I saw something from David. Please feel free to email me as well if you're having issues with the php content.
