[Phpwm] Site Structure

[Peter Graham]

If you use a headers and footers instead your URL's will be nicer, since
you wont be passing a variable in them.
 
Google prefers "nice" url's and will give you a higher rank. They are
often easier for visitors to type/remember.
 
For example:
www.yoursite.com/page.php is nicer than
www.yoursite.com/index.php?page=12
 
hope this helps,
Pete

Hi Folks,

Hope your all ok.

I was after some basic advice, regarding setting up my site using php
(this is my first php project).

I have my index page with two divs, one for the menu and one for the
content where I pull in the different pages, by setting a variable thats
the name of the page, in the url. Below is the code I have in my index.

<?php
if (isset($_GET['page'])) {
$page = $page . "." . "php";
include("$page");
}
else {
include("welcome.php");
}
?>

This works fine, but if I want to redirect the user to a different page
using the header function, I get an error because there is html on my
index page, before the php code.

How do you guys go about setting up your sites in a resourceful way?

Am I just better off sticking to including a header and a footer on all
my pages?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Many thanks.

Matt
