What I did on my site is made a file called config.php, I then made a
variable for all the files that need to be included, example, header,
footer, leftnav, rightnav, etc..
My config file looks like this:
<?php
$header ="/home/public_html/includes/header.php";
$rightnav ="/home/public_html/includes/rightnav.php";
$leftnav ="/home/public_html/includes/leftnav.php";
$footer ="/home/public_html/includes/footer.php";
// and many other include variables here..
?>
Then I simply call config.php into all my pages and when I want to include a
file I just do:
<?php
include("$header");
// html and stuff....
include("$footer");
?>
my config.php has all my site includes and it allows me to dynamically
change anything throughout the site in a matter of seconds.
hope this helps.
