I have the following code:
<?php include ("head.php");?>
<title>módulo EAD</title>
<body>
<div class="container">
<header>
<div class="page-header">
<h1>Bem vindo ao módulo EAD</h1>
<hr>
</div>
</header>
<?php include ("menuLateral.php");?>
</div>
</body>
</html>
head.php is just a file to load the CSS files:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/vertical.css">
</head>
this is menulatera.php:
<?php include ("head.php");?>
<div class="vertical-menu">
<a href="#" class="active">Home</a>
<a href="#">link 1</a>
<a href="#">link 2</a>
</div>
and his CSS:
.vertical-menu {
width: 200px; /* Set a width if you like */
}
.vertical-menu a {
background-color: #eee; /* Grey background color */
color: black; /* Black text color */
display: block; /* Make the links appear below each other */
padding: 12px; /* Add some padding */
text-decoration: none; /* Remove underline from links */
}
.vertical-menu a:hover {
background-color: #ccc; /* Dark grey background on mouse-over */
}
.vertical-menu a.active {
background-color: #4CAF50; /* Add a green color to the "active/current" link */
color: white;
}
When I call the main code page, the return I have of menulateral.php include, are just the 3 hyperlinks of the 'a' contained in this file, one next to the other!

the idea is to be able to implement a menu like the one provided as tutorial in this link: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_vertical_menu.asp#

I got the title! sorry.

Just one remark: has a <title> tag before the <body> and after the </head> in the first code snippet.

but that makes no difference. does <?php include ("head.php");? > already include the entire head structure I’m going to use.

His CSS is being loaded into that file?

Where is this CSS code from the menu you cite? It doesn’t make much sense for you to use the files either
bootstrap.cssandbootstrap.min.css, both are the same files, the second being the minified version of the first.– Woss
And check your file tree...to see if css is correct
– MagicHat
css is being loaded here: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/vertical.css"> this is the last line of head.php... I also deleted bootstrap min
