msg:3793045 | 3:37 pm on Nov 24, 2008 (gmt 0) | Very simple request, and I thought I would easily find tutorials on it online, but didn't find much. I have a new universal header for my website (header.php) and I want it displayed all across the website. How can I go about doing this? It is actually in HTML format, and I am not sure if I can keep it like that, or does it have to be saved in .php to be able to display it across the website? Right now, I am using Front Page's 'Page display' feature, which is not very effective, and I want a better faster way to do this. So that when I change something in the header file, it will be displayed all across the website immediately. Thanks a lot

You can tell apache to parse .thml as php either via httpd.conf or simply by adding this line to .htaccess file in your directory AddType application/x-httpd-php .html Once either of them is done , you simply go to lets say yourSitePage1.html and add <? include "header.php"; ?> on top. And hey, if you go the httpd.conf route then you will have to restart apache before checking if it works [edited by: Anyango at 4:47 am (utc) on Nov. 25, 2008]
