page within a page

I want to have it so that when a surfer clicks a link, he is sent to a page where the page requested is found below, and at the top there would be some space where I can put more relevant links, banners, etc. I've seen this done with perl, I was wondering if the same can be done with php.

I don't want to use frames, I'd prefer just a clean divide with no option for the surfer to adjust the frame. Any ideas on how to do this?

or require() if you want PHP to return an error if it cant find it

on a different note...but same topic, what is the diff betwen include_once and include, and require_once and require?

include() can include the same file more then once, while if include_once() is used it will not include the file again if it's already been included somewhere else in the page. Same thing goes for require and require_once() ie.

Code: Select all

// content of header.php will be included twice
include('header.php');
include('header.php');

/* use of include_once() */

// content of header.php will be included only once
include_once('header.php');
include_once('header.php');
include_once and require_once are slightly slower then their counterparts, because they search to see if the file has already been included.
