Your question makes little sense. The .tpl extension is not generally related to php. We are going to need more details.

Ok let me further explain, currently my index file calls a .ptl file at opening like this:

 

define( "MAINAREA", FALSE );
require( "dbconnect.php" );
require( "includes/functions.php" );
require( "includes/clientareafunctions.php" );
$pagetitle = $_LANG['globalsystemname'];
$breadcrumbnav = "<a href=\"index.php\">".$_LANG['globalsystemname']."</a>";
$templatefile = "content";
$pageicon = "";
initialiseClientArea( $pagetitle, $pageicon, $breadcrumbnav );
$result = select_query( "tblannouncements", "", array( "published" => "on" ), "date", "DESC", "0,3" );
while ( $data = mysql_fetch_array( $result ) )
{
$id = $data['id'];
$date = $data['date'];
$title = $data['title'];
$announcement = $data['announcement'];
$result2 = select_query( "tblannouncements", "", array( "parentid" => $id, "language" => $_SESSION['Language'] ) );
$data = mysql_fetch_array( $result2 );
if ( $data['title'] )
{
	$title = $data['title'];
}
if ( $data['announcement'] )
{
	$announcement = $data['announcement'];
}
$date = fromMySQLDate( $date );
$announcements[] = array( "id" => $id, "date" => $date, "title" => $title, "urlfriendlytitle" => getModRewriteFriendlyString( $title ), "text" => $announcement );
}
$smartyvalues['announcements'] = $announcements;
$smartyvalues['seofriendlyurls'] = $CONFIG['SEOFriendlyUrls'];
outputMAINtArea( $templatefile );
?>

 

the ("$templatefile = "content" line does the .tpl file loading which is fine the only problem is thatinstead of that "content" tpl  file i need it to load this php file: /products.php?do=groups&groupid=2. So i figure if somehow I can get this php file to be included within the tpl file I could get it loading through there, unless there is a much direct way.

 

thank you

Including a file via a url is not the same as including a file directly. You will only receive the output from the file, not the variables, classes and all the good stuff.
