PHP Include in Header

Hi Guys..

I am in the process of creating a skin for my forum but i have ran into a problem.

My problem is:

Can i use a PHP include such as:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

  include('../../core.php');

  top('Forum');

?>

in my header template (not headerinclude).

Cheers,
Marc

No, you can not use PHP in templates, they are only HTML.

You can however create a plugin with your PHP-code, assign the output to a variable and use that variable in your template.

Ill give that a try and post back! Thanks!

By the way, what would my Hook Location be? The header?

--------------- Added [DATE]1192626390[/DATE] at [TIME]1192626390[/TIME] ---------------

Anyone?! Please!!

Use global_start if you want it to be available on all pages.

Plugin on the global_start hook:

PHP Code:


		
			
$myheader = '<h1>My Header Here</h1>';

Then near the top of your header template:

Code:

<!-- logo -->

<a name="top"></a>



$myheader

Thanks,

I have created a new product (called 'nav') and added a plugin within (called 'navshow') it's hook location is global_start... In plugin 'navshow i have:

Code:

$navig ='<?php

  include('../../../core.php');

  top('Forum');

?>';

Also, in my header template i have $navig.

It still isnt working, what am i doing wrong :(

Thanks in advance!

Change your plugin code to:

PHP Code:


		
			
ob_start();
include('../../../core.php');
top('Forum');
$navig = ob_get_clean();
