   I had uploaded function.php file to my twentyeleven child theme and went to appreance>editor. It gave me a blank page with a massage as:
   fatal error:.....
   Is there any one can tell me what's going on there?

   Sorry, the error message is like this:
   Fatal error: Cannot redeclare twentyeleven_excerpt_length() (previously declared in /home/jojo1668/public_html/profitsourceblog.com/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven-child/functions.php:318) in /home/jojo1668/public_html/profitsourceblog.com/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/functions.php on line 320

   right - your parent theme functions and child theme functions are conflicting
   do as the link says so the child functions are loaded 1st or don't use a functions.php in child theme
