A good way of handling what you want to do is what I use extensively at my site... SSI (Server Side Includes). But in order to use Server Side Includes, your host server must be configured to support them.

SSI can be used in many ways, such as putting a menu bar on every page of your site (thus not needing a separate frame for it), placing banners and such on your site, showing the date/time the page was last updated, copyright info on the bottom of each page, etc.

Depending on your host server restrictions, to add SSI to your page(s), you "may" have to change your web page file extensions to .shtml

Calls to SSI are done with one simple line in your HTML that looks something like this:
<!--#echo var="DATE_LOCAL" -->

The above will tell the host server to include the local time at that particular place in your HTML. The working output of that code would look similar to this:
Monday, 12-Apr-2004 09:59:29 EDT

And that is all the site visitor sees when viewing your page source code. The host server will send the full HTML output including everything called by SSI to the site visitor. The site visitor will not see the actual SSI call line if they view the source of the page.

You can use an SSI to call another file that has a snippet of HTML or text in it. This is useful if you have a certain HTML code or text on every page of your site, and it can be changed in the future (eg: the side menu you mentioned).

So, a site menu on every page could be a snippet of HTML code put in a separate file, and called in using an SSI. That way, if you add a page to the site, you go in and change that one snippet of code, and it automatically changes on every page. Convenience without resorting to frames!

The code you would use to include text or HTML would look like this:
<!--#include virtual="menu.html" -->

In the file "menu.html" in the example above, you would have a snippet of HTML code that contains only the code necessary to make the side menu on your site, if that's what you're using it for. In virtual=, you can specify where the file is located in the same way as if it were in an href=, i.e. "../directory/menu.html" or "/username/directory/menu.html".

YOU CANNOT call code that is placed on a server other than your host server. In other words, virtual="http://www.anothersite.com/menu.html" won't work!

The uses of SSI "include" calls are limited only to your imagination.

A more detailed look at SSI can be found at BigNoseBird.com.

<?php
define('IN_PHPBB', true);

$lyrics = './'; // <--
include($lyrics . 'extension.inc');
include($lyrics . 'common.'.$phpEx);

$userdata = session_pagestart($user_ip, PAGE_INDEX);

include($lyrics . 'sitemenu.'.$phpEx);
?>
  1. <?php
  2. define('IN_PHPBB', true);
  4. $lyrics = './'; // <--
  5. include($lyrics . 'extension.inc');
  6. include($lyrics . 'common.'.$phpEx);
  8. $userdata = session_pagestart($user_ip, PAGE_INDEX);
  9. init_userprefs($userdata);
  11. include($lyrics . 'sitemenu.'.$phpEx);

and i asked if this will work


Code: [ Select ]
<?php
define('IN_PHPBB', true);

$lyrics = './'; // <--
include($lyrics . 'extension.inc');
include($lyrics . 'common.'.$phpEx);

$userdata = session_pagestart($user_ip, PAGE_INDEX);
init_userprefs($userdata);

include($lyrics . 'sitemenu.'.$phpEx);
?>
  1. <?php
  2. define('IN_PHPBB', true);
  4. $lyrics = './'; // <--
  5. include($lyrics . 'extension.inc');
  6. include($lyrics . 'common.'.$phpEx);
  8. $userdata = session_pagestart($user_ip, PAGE_INDEX);
  9. init_userprefs($userdata);
  11. include($lyrics . 'sitemenu.'.$phpEx);
  12. ?>


but i was playin with it and got it to work with this

Code: [ Select ]
<?
include($phpbb_root_path . 'sitemenu.'.$phpEx);
?>
  1. <?
  2. include($phpbb_root_path . 'sitemenu.'.$phpEx);
  3. ?>


so in the file called site menu i have this

Code: [ Select ]
