A word about include statements
A useful function in PHP is to include the contents of fileX in fileY at a given point.
For example:
- You could
- include a menu file in each page
- or a CSS file dynamically created from a database
- or any number of other ideas
Create the following file and save it as "menu.php"
<table border=1>
<tr>
<td><a href="page1.php">Page 1</a></td>
<td><a href="page2.php">Page 2</a></td>
<td><a href="page3.php">Page 3</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
Now create the following and save it as "page1.php"
<html><head><title>Page1</title></head>
<body>
<? include ("menu.php"); ?>
<p>this is the content of page 1</p>
</body>
</html>
Now create the following and save it as "page2.php"
<html><head><title>Page2</title></head>
<body>
<? include ("menu.php"); ?>
<p>this is the content of page 2</p>
</body>
</html>
See if you can create the third page??
