I was creating a theme options page based on a tutorial by Tom McFarlin at TutsPlus and I’m a little stuck. I can’t understand where the code goes bad here, because it doesn’t allow me to access the site at all when its executed.
Is there an easier way to accomplish text input and theme options?

vote_header_options_callback()is declared twice ! Trying to declare the same function name twice will cause a fatal PHP error.Give another name to your function.
