[PHP-DB] RE: [PHP] Adding includes to files
OK, so I figured out where it was barfing. I looked deeper into the log files as well as the generated pages, and found that somewhere the path to the include files had become mangled, and the reason the files weren't showing correctly in the HTML pages in the browser was because it couldn't find the right files. It's on track and working all neat and tidy now. Thanks for the help guys! I still feel like a doofus though...

Output buffering isn't going to help, the files, when completed need to look like: Categories of Items Html content If all I was trying to do was pull in the files I could do that without a problem, but what I need to do is generate the whole page with the information. I attached the php file that does the site generation and maybe it will shed some light on what I am trying to do as well. TIA!! Robert -Original Message- From: John W.
