hi folks,
I am slowly converting my site to use .php pages. It is currently using includes and .shtml and .html pages.

What is the code for the following include coverted to a php include?

<!--#include virtual="/my-directory/mypage-to-be-included.html"-->

The easiest way would be:

I think include_once() may be a better option, IIRC if the resource is not found using require_once() or require() it may throw an error and not render the rest of the page.

geez you guys are quick! I guess I'll wait until the dust settles because we got differing opinions... ;-)

Is ok to include .html pages in a .php page?
Kind regards, Capt. Mike

That is correct, you'll get a error if your path is named wrong.

I put up a couple example pages to show the difference; and yes, it is okay to include .html pages in a .php page... I do it all the time.

Example using require_once()
www (dot) michaelkrotchie.com/require_once.php
Example using include_once()
www (dot) michaelkrotchie.com/include_once.php
So it displays an error either way, just depends how you want to handle the rest of the page. If you have the file there it doesn't really matter I think.

Heck you guys are GREAT! :-)

Thanks for your help! Now I gotta figure out how to slowly migrate the pages with the extensions changed from .shtml to .php and not get dinged too bad in the search engines.

I suppose I should research and see if there is some sort of mod rewrite solution...

Thanks you guys! Have a GREAT weekend!

Here is some code you can play with. Place it in a page, then call up that page in a browsers something like this -www.your-domain.com/your_page.php/1/2/3/4/5/6 and you will see how it works. I put a few "echos" in there so you can see waht it does. Change the browser url to www.your-domain.com/your_page.php/6/5/4/3/2/1 and you'll see it.

I've used that system quite a bit and have good luck with it.

SE friendly urls - http://www.sitepoint.com/article/sea...riendly-urls/2

Here's the code

<?
$file=eregi_replace($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'], "", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
$var=explode("/", $file);


$affiliate_num_test = $var[3] ;//repnaming header_ID
echo '$affiliate_num_test = ', $affiliate_num_test;?><BR><?
$url_cat = $var[4] ;
echo '$url_cat = ', $url_cat;?><BR><?
$cat_record_num = $var[5] ;
$cat_page_total = $var[6] ;
$cat_page_id = $var[7] ;
$link_page_id = $var[8] ;
$link_page_total = $var[9] ;
$link_record_num = $var[10] ;
echo 'link_record_num = ', link_record_num;?><BR><?

include("http://Bungeebones.com/link_exchange/index.php/$affiliate_num/$url_cat/$cat_record_num/$cat_page_total/$cat_page_id/$link_page_id/$link_page_total/$link_record_num");
