Best way to keep same layout across multiple pages
Posted: Sat Oct 08, 2011 3:10 pm
Hi everyone! 
I was just wondering if I would be able to get some advice on how to set up a website I'm working on for school. The website has the basic home, about, contact pages and then a students page, which will link to 80 student profiles - the profile pages will still use the same layout and design as the rest of the website (header, nav, footer), just with custom styling for the div containing the profile content. I haven't created a website with this amount of content before - I am also unable to use a cms for this project. I would like to be able to easily edit the header, nav, footer (everything that is repeated on each page) through one file, and have these changes applied to all the pages on the website.
I found this website after googling about it: http://www.sitefundamentals.com/include ... web-pages/
I remember using these php includes back in 2007. So I was just wondering if there are any new and improved ways of going about this, or is this still a good way?
I would be very grateful for any help!
