Jim,
Thanks for your time. This is a bit of thinking out loud as I'm not
proficient with php.
I use:
<?php include("header.php"); ?> and also one for the footer, in all of
my files.
So in every file after <body> use the require like:
<?php require(('/path/to/base-paths.inc');
$phpbase = '/path/to/root/of/php/code/'; ?>
Then call my header file,
Content,
footer call
I'm not understanding the include($phpbase and the concatenation to file.php
Just came back from a few days in Vegas so maybe a bit slow. :)
thx..ron
