[SOLVED] Simple copyright line

[Lee]

I want to echo out the copyright at the footer of my page (still a noob).

 

Here's what I have in my vars page.

$copyright = '<span class="smallwhite">© 2007 Stone Island Records </span>';

Then I just echo..

<?php echo $copyright; ?>

 

What I really want to do is have php adjust the year for me. So do I have to make 3 variables, one for the copyright symbol, one to display the current year & another to display our name, or is there a simpler way of doing this?

 

Thanks in advance.

<?php
$year = date("Y");
$copyright = '<span class="smallwhite">© ' . $year . ' Stone Island Records </span>';
echo $copyright;
?>

May not be the best way,.. but it works  

 

<?php

$copyright = "<span class=\"smallwhite\">©" .  date("Y") . "Stone Island Records </span>";

echo $copyright;

?>

?>

You could use fread

Well today I have just built my first ever page using a header, content & footer & using php to call for images e.t.c. And now the copyright too thanks to your help.

Totally chuffed
