Templates parse PHP?

[CdaKnight]

Hi, I am looking to add a mySQL driven menu bar into my vB. I have the code that I use on my main website, I'm just not sure if vB templates will automatically parse php, or if I have to do something special. So if anybody knows, please do tell.

phpinclude_start and phpinclude_end (for vB3) or phpinclude for vB2 will parse PHP. PHP cannot be used in any other templates with the exception of template conidtionals in vB3.
