Title: php Includes
Skill Level: Basic
Author: Sazzad Hossain & RIT webDEV club
Demo: This site uses includes
Authors Note: PHP is perhaps one of the simplest language you can earn that can grant you much freedom with your site. In addition, it can also make your life a lot easier. If you are a web-designer you will see why. First of all, php has many functions that allow you to substitute for a long list of codes. For example, in this tutorial I will talk about php include. What php include basically does is takes an entire page of coding from one location and brings it to the page where you requested it. So if I have a head section located in “/include/head.php” and I want it to show up in my index.php file; all I have to do is call for it using php include.
