I think I see what you're getting at. If you include a file, you still
need parser instructions for the contents of the included file, since
the include file can have processor directives just the same as the
including script does. To wit:
<code file="index.php">
<?php
include 'html-header.inc.php';
include 'main.inc.php';
include 'html-footer.inc.php';
?>
</code>
<code file="html-header.inc.php">
<html>
<head><title><?php echo COMPANY_NAME; ?></title></head>
<body>
<?php include 'company-header.inc.php'; ?>
</code>
<code file="main.inc.php">
<?php
$inc = '/LIB/section-'.$_GET['section'].'inc.php';
include $inc;
?>
</code>
<code file="html-footer.inc.php">
<?php include 'company-footer.inc.php'; ?>
</body>
</html>
</code>
So as you see, you have to have <?php ?> tags on included content, as
that included content may still contain a mix of processor directives
and hard-coded data (like html).
Incidentally, you really only need <?php if a page is all php; the
parser will close the file and auto-insert a ?> to finish. However, I
generally this to be bad practice and always insert it anyways.
