Hey, heres a tutorial on how to save time by using footers in your php web pages. if you custom code your site using php you may have a time when you need to update something on all pages or maybe a new year has passed and you need to update all the pages copyright links.
Instead of adding at the bottom of a php doc :
<html>
<head
<title>none</title>
</head>
<body>
<b>Copyright 2003</b>
</body>
</html>
Make a file called footer.php and add the above code. Then just add this to the bottom of all pages instead of ^
include 'footer.php';
Then all pages with that code will include that file.. all you need to do is update then when you need to.
Note: You can use require but if the file is mssing the page won't excute and will return false and a fatal error.
