You can use 'include_once'; just make sure the path to the file is correct

Code: Select all

<title><?php include_once 'title.php';   ?></title>

Use "if" or "switch...case" for specific title

If the title is dependant on certain conditions you will need a conditional statement to determine what is displayed; What will determine if you display 'philippines' ?

You can do the script on the title.php page and return the value

ah okay but ah.. my main question here is ah a phpscript, like you answer earlier, that i use include but as i know include is to call a whole inside in the page.

I don't understand the question completely so i've pasted an example to convey my reasoning; i hope this clears things up for you

Code: Select all

 // on inco_page.php
My name is <?php include_once 'page.php'; ?>
And inside page.php is this code

Code: Select all

<?php
	function total($var) {
		$name = $var;
		echo $name;
	}
	
	total('LavaBlob');
?>
Which will return "My name is LavaBlob " if you run inco_page.php

Well, what determines which title gets called? The title page you presented earlier with a bunch of echoes is never going to work.
