Hi,

What are the error messages?

Why in the name of Charles Babbage would you want to do that?!?!?

Anyway, one problem could be that footer.php will never get called if $this does not evaluate to true.

I need to do like this

because I want cache a file
<?php //header.php
if( ! $cache){
?>

I output my html here

<?php
//footer .php
}
else{
echo $getCached;
}
?>

It will be more easier if I want cache a file,
because I just include header.php and footer.php in which file I want to cache.

But the php tells me it's wrong to do in this way!

How about:
cache.php:

<?php
$cache = 'cache.html';
if(file_exists($cache))
{
   readfile($cache);
   exit; // terminate the script here since we're outputting the cache
}
?>

index.php:

<?php
include "cache.php";
// ...rest of page...
?>

I totally understand your solution,but...
pls look my codes bellows:

mycache.php

<?php
define('THEME_CACHE_DIR',$_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]."/cosbeta/ThemeCache"); //this is the cache-lite path

define('PEAR_DIR',$_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"].'/lib/PEAR');  //this is the pear path



$no_cache = array("/","");

$lifeTime = 3600 ;//cache life time

/*
you don't need to edit bellows
*/
ini_set('include_path', PEAR_DIR . PATH_SEPARATOR . ini_get('include_path'));


require_once "Cache/Lite/Output.php";

$options = array(
    'cacheDir' => THEME_CACHE_DIR.'/cache/',
    'lifeTime' => $lifeTime,
    'pearErrorMode' => CACHE_LITE_ERROR_DIE
);

$cache = new Cache_Lite_Output($options);

if( $s != ""  ){
	$isCache = false;
}

$id_of_the_page =  md5($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']) ;

$cache = new Cache_Lite_Output($options);
/*

put bellows on the top of the page which should cache 

if (!($cache->start($id_of_the_page))) {

*/
?>

the file I want to cache now like this ,it works
index.php

<?php
require_once (TEMPLATEPATH . "/mycache.php");

if (!($cache->start($id_of_the_page))) {

?>

html goes here

<?php
if( array_search( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], $no_cache ) ){
	$cache->save($data);
 }
  $cache->end();
}
else { 
  $data = $cache->get($id_of_the_page);
}
?>

what I want to do is just create a page like this

index.php

<?php include "cache_header.php";?>
normal html or php scripts here
<?php include "cache_footer.php";?>

resolved!!
header

........
if ( $cache->start($id_of_the_page) ) {
	//if cached;
	exit(0);
}

footer

<?php
if( $cache ){
	if( array_search( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], $no_cache ) ){
	$cache->save($data);
 }
  $cache->end();

}
?>
