New website users "links" to content - does this work for SEO?

We built our old website ourselves and all of the content for each page was in each page, so what you saw on the screen was basically waht you would see if you looked at the HTML. Recently we had someone build a much better looking website for us, but I'm worried that all of the content is getting missed for SEO purposes. Here is an example of the code from our homepage. So for the "Footer" section, will the cralwer see that text in those two areas? There is a lot of content in those two sections and I'm worried that because the text isn't physically on the homepage, it won't be "counted."


<?php include("framework/ana_header.php"); ?>
<?php include("framework/slider.php"); ?>

...

<div id="photo">
<h3>Utility Locating Photos</h3>
<?php include("framework/photo.php"); ?>
</div>
<!-- end photo -->

<div id="footer">
<?php include("framework/footer.php"); ?>
<?php include("framework/bottom.php"); ?>
</div>
<!-- end footer -->

The crawler will see the final rendered page, not the PHP code. Visit one of these pages and view the page source in your browser - this is what the crawler will see, not your raw PHP code.
