I am learning Magento module development. I am trying to develop a custom module for Magento Admin panel. I would like to display grid. My codes are as follows

Location : app/etc/modules

Digitab_Brandlogo.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <Digitab_Brandlogo>
            <active>true</active>
            <codePool>local</codePool>
        </Digitab_Brandlogo>
    </modules>
</config>

Location : app/code/local/Digitab/Brandlogo/Block/Adminhtml

Brandlogo.php

<?php
    class Digitab_Brandlogo_Block_Adminhtml_Brandlogo extends Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Widget_Grid_Container

                $this->_blockGroup = 'brandlogo';
                $this->_headerText = Mage::helper('digitab_brandlogo')->__('Brand Logo Manager');
            $this->_addButtonLabel = Mage::helper('digitab_brandlogo')->__('Add Brand');
                parent::__construct();
        } 

       protected function _prepareLayout()
       {
          $this->setChild('grid',$this->getLayout()->createBlock( $this->_blockGroup.'/' . $this->_controller . '_grid',    $this->_controller . '.grid')->setSaveParametersInSession(true) );
          return parent::_prepareLayout();

</layout>

Error I found in exception.log is as like below

exception 'Mage_Core_Exception' with message 'Invalid block type: Digitab_Brandlogo_Block_Brandlogo' in /home3/theaid/public_html/demo/app/Mage.php:595

I am getting a blank white page when I am clicking on Brandlogo menu of Digitab.

Could anyone help me to display a grid??

Thanks

    protected function _prepareLayout()

        $this->setChild('grid',$this->getLayout()->createBlock( $this->_blockGroup.'/' . $this->_controller . '_grid',    $this->_controller . '.grid')->setSaveParametersInSession(true) );
        return parent::_prepareLayout();
    }
}

Note: Create database table creation script as well for this. You haven't mentioned it here

Replace your code from:

<?php
    class Digitab_Brandlogo_Block_Adminhtml_Brandlogo extends Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Widget_Grid_Container
    {
        public function __construct()
        {
                $this->_controller = 'adminhtml_brandlogo';
                $this->_blockGroup = 'brandlogo';
                $this->_headerText = Mage::helper('digitab_brandlogo')->__('Brand Logo Manager');
            $this->_addButtonLabel = Mage::helper('digitab_brandlogo')->__('Add Brand');
                parent::__construct();
        } 

       protected function _prepareLayout()
       {
          $this->setChild('grid',$this->getLayout()->createBlock( $this->_blockGroup.'/' . $this->_controller . '_grid',    $this->_controller . '.grid')->setSaveParametersInSession(true) );
          return parent::_prepareLayout();
       }
    }
?>

to

<?php
    class Digitab_Brandlogo_Block_Adminhtml_Brandlogo extends Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Widget_Grid_Container
    {
        public function __construct()
        {
                $this->_controller = 'adminhtml_brandlogo';
                $this->_blockGroup = 'brandlogo';
                $this->_headerText = Mage::helper('digitab_brandlogo')->__('Brand Logo Manager');
                $this->_addButtonLabel = Mage::helper('digitab_brandlogo')->__('Add Brand');
                parent::__construct();
        }
    }
