I was wondering how to make a side nav-bar thing. like one on the left hand side that goes down to the bottom of the page. I can make one that goes left to right but not up and down. Thanks. Im kind of a php noob.

PHP is used on the back end of your website to handle dynamic content. HTML and CSS are used to render your site in a browser. If you're only wanting to affect the way your site appears in a web browser, use either HTML or (preferably) CSS. When one of the buttons in the navbar is clicked, your php code will handle that request.

Create your navbar using HTML and CSS, then add dynamic functionality with PHP.

i know how to make buttons in html but how do i make the side bar itself.

you use a rowspan="# of rows to span" in the first cell and that will give you a side bar however if you dont even know that i suggest really reading up more on html.
