using server side includes with php on Apache

katherinebailey

when you have a .shtml page with a php script in it, eg. , is it possible to pass variables to this script? eg. you have a link on another page which says <a href="orders.shtml?id=3"> and you want to pass this value 3 to the php script included in orders.shtml
is this possible?
or is there a better way of using php and ssi together?

I don't know much about ssi, so I can't help you there, sorry, but I know you can include() files with other php files.
