include php files?

will i get indexed

[davejs]

Hi

If i have a PHP page that has a "include'somephp.php'" at the top will google pick up the full content returned to the browser from the code running within the include?

I just want to check that content from an include is valid!

Thanks

What you see in your browser when you view source is what the spider sees.

As Brett said, your server side includes (whether PHP, ASP, text files, .inc files ...) are parsed by the server and rendered to the browser as normal html code (you can check your pages source code) therefore the spiders will see it.

Thanks for your help,

one other related question.....

I havnt done this yet but im thinking about it.....

I want to make a selection of "stored off" pages as .htm files with the majority of content being made via PHP.

Can i use a image src command to call a PHP file that returns an image but also returns loads of other content as well?

Is this legal in the eyes of a search engine? Im not trying to hide anything i just want my static pages as .htm rather than PHP.

Thanks again
Dave

Ehhhhmmmm (puzzled).. no?!

What you are looking for is (in case of an apache server) the mod_rewrite command that will simply be added to the .htaccess file. There's miilions of ressources out there - here at WW and google, but just to give you a quick starter:

With mod_rewrite you type in "anything your want" (for example mypage.html) in the browser's address field and this module looks up a completely different page (like myconstructedpage.php?var1=blablabla). You can do this file by file or with patterns.
