anteater Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Hello, I am not very good at PHP. I have a header and footer include in every page. Now I want a different title for each page. The code I inserted doesn't work. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance. [attachment deleted by admin] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PravinS Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 According to your coding there is only way to pass PAGE_TITLE variable in page_header() function. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slurpee Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Although what you have done is not a good way to create your page header, this should work: On the first line after your "function page_header( $pict='top1.png' ) {" function declaration, add the following: global $page_title; Note: This is just a hack for your code to make the page title work; as I said it's not really good coding practice. If you want a more thorough explanation and/or example let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anteater Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 What is a better way to do this then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slurpee Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I usually don't like outputting my template headers from a function, maybe it's just a preference but I find it pretty messy. What I'll do instead, is something like this: in index.php: <? $page_title = "AntEater B.V."; include "header.php"; ?> All my other body text <? include "footer.php"; ?> Then, in header.php you would have something like: <? $page_title = $page_title ? $page_title : 'Default Page Title'; ?> <html> <head> <title><?= $page_title ?></title> ....
