Re: Templates in PHP

There are functions for including in a script, a script held in another file. Is this what you mean? i.e. you can define the functions that you will use (and constants, variables, etc) and then include them.

Syntax:
PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. include 'functions.php';
  2. include "variables.inc";

See also, include_once, require and require_once.

Re: Templates in PHP

a template

<html>
<head>
<style>
.left {width:50% text-align:right; float:left;}
.right{width:50% text-align:left; float:right;}
</style>
</head>
</body>
<div class=left><?php include('left.php'); ?></div>
<div class=right><?php include('right.php'); ?></div>
</body>
</html>

a trivial example, yet without any idea of
'my requirement' its difficult
the template above is the <style></style> in the head
typically the layout is created in an external stylesheet, that specifies,
absolute (bad only works on 1 screensize) or
relative (good)
placement and size colors transparency visibility of the elements to appear on a html page.
then the stylesheet is referenced in each pages source and ensures uniformity of appearance.
also allows for easy alteration of appearance by editing a single stylesheet
in php it is simple,
each page is (trivial example)
PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. <?php ob_start("ob_gzhandler");
  2. include ('header file');
  3. /* some code to generate a body or process data */
  4. ?>
  5. <LINK Rel="stylesheet" Type="text/css" Media="screen" href="/style.css.php">
  6. </head>
  7. <body>
  8. some static html
  9. <?php
  10. /* some more php to do something else */
  11. include ('footer file');
  12. ob_flush();
  13. ?>
where header file includes the lines
<LINK Rel="stylesheet" Type="text/css" Media="screen" href="/style.css.php">
<script type=text/javascript language='javascript' src='/script.js.php'>

edit: in my sites all files are given php extensions and the first lines of code are
<?php 
header ('content-type: /* actual content:: text html text/css text/javascript */');
ob_start("ob_gzhandler"); ?>

the last line of code is 
<php 
ob_flush(); 
?>

in case mod_deflate is not enabled in the server

A CSS template
style.css.php

Re: Templates in PHP

you know when you use a template like them, they have a manual or documentation provided at there website.... on there manual, examples are provided.. so its going to cost some reading and testing.
