HELP! templates and hashmaps again

ok, i fixed all the .h file errors, but now i have some NASTY .cpp errors

here is the constructor, at the moment its the only thing that is not commented out
a version of my .h file which still has errors will be attached for referance, but like i said, its the old version before i fixed it so its really screwy. i think the problem has to do with my definitions syntax, not really sure...its driving me nuts, anyway...PLEASE HELP!!! IM DYING HERE! DEADLINE IS APPROACHING

template HashMap<class KeyType, class ValueType>
HashMap<KeyType, ValueType>::HashMap(hashfunc h, int buckets)
{
if (buckets <= 0)
{
string s1 = "HashMap Constructor";
throw HashMapException(s1);
}

element **buckets;
buckets = new *element[numbuckets];
for ( int i = 0; i <= numbuckets; i++ )
{
buckets[i] = NULL;
}

hashfunc = h;
}

these are my errors
