Some questions
I was wondering how I can make it so that when I change something to a layout on one page, it does it to all pages. Example: I add a link to a sub bar and the link is added to every page. Also, I would like to know how I can make a really nice poll using PHP. I want mine to work exactly like the one at GameFAQs only using PHP, not ASP. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

- Thanks
MasterChief

1. You need to use includes
PHP Code:
include("footer.html"); 

That will load the HTML from footer.html into where that line is. In footer will be the html for the footer of the doucument.

2. There are many free poll scripts running around the net... why make your own? Advaced poll is a good one to use http://www.proxy2.de/scripts.php

You can use server side includes (SSI)
Code:
<!--#include virtual="footer.html" -->


Also, I would definitely suggest keeping all your layout and design in external style sheets. This will allow you to easily control your overall web site's layout.

Not all hosts support PHP either. Your point is? SSI is included as part of Apache and therefore a large amount have support for it.

He said he wants it to be PHP-based, so we know his host supports it; we don't know if they support SSI as well and it's not worth switching for SSI

But anyhow, if you have PHP support I would use that, SSI is good to use since it makes it more portable between host.

I don't want to download and go through the process of configuring. I want to use PHP. I want to make a poll of my own. Sorry if I don't agree with using SSI or an already made poll. It's just my opinion on how I want things to work.
