Common Header/Footer

[Anon]

Hello,

I'm having trouble calling a variable into my page, i'm trying to use common headers and footers but it's not working. Here's what i'm using, what i'm getting back in index.php is just a blank area, it's like the variables disappear.

index.php script:
<?php
$title = 'Welcome';
include('http://www.toxicmusic.com/popnfresh/include/header.php');
?>

header.php script:
<title>Pop 'n' Fresh Bizkit | <?php echo $title; ?></title>

Thank you,

If you pass an URL when you're trying to include(), it uses a socket to HTTP connect to the site and grabs the HTML output. Thus, you're getting the PHP parsed HTML, so header.php is having to evaluate an undefined header.php.

When you include PHP files, you MUST get the locally. Using

include("header.php");

should be sufficient if it's in the same directory. Hope this helps 😉

or if you need it in the different directory, use full path to the file
