include files as templates?

[Anon]

Hi folks
would it be terribly inefficient to use two include files (top and bottom) for a template?

I'm having trouble installing PHPLib as my host does not allow access to the php.ini. but I would really like to seperate my PHP from HTML.

many thanks

Nick

What you could do is have 2 functions in an include:

Example:

template.inc.php

function html_header() {
echo "";
echo "</body>;
}

function html_footer() {
echo "</body>";
echo "";
}

---

Now just include template.inc.php in your file and call html_header() to print the header and html_footer() to print the footer.
