need little php help

[deleteduser]

i have a website with a head part (logo etc) and a navigation on the left and the main stuff in the center.

i want to have the head + navigation saved somewhere and add it to every page automaticly. that will make it alot easiert to change the navigation later. i don't want to edit 1000 html files.

can anybody help me there? if so, email me to [email protected] or post here! thanks!

make individual head and menu files call with ssi perhaps?

[deleteduser]

will do that if you tell me how

Save your header as header.html and your navigation as nav.html

Then you add this where your header is supposed to be:
< ? include("header.html") ? >

and this where your navigation is supposed to be:
< ? include("nav.html") ? >


(Delete the space inbetween < and ?)

With php use include or require.

Use the manual: http://www.php.net/manual/

<.? include("file.txt"); ?.>

file.txt contains ur html

This is the simplest way to go.

can you run SSI and PHP on the same page?
