To insert bits of PHP code in an HTML
page, all you have to do is insert it in a special
tag, like this:
<? any amount of PHP code ?>
Note: depending on your HTML editor, or if you
are using XML, you might need to use one of
these alternate "PHP tags":
<?php "blah blah blah" ?>
<% "blah blah blah" %>
Here is an example which uses a variable:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML
1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<title> <? print($pagetitle); ?>
</title>
</head>
<body>
HTML code... <? PHP code ?> ...HTML code...
<? PHP code ?> ...HTML code... etc...
</body>
</html> /p>
The print statement in the "Title"
line simply sends the value of the variable
$pagetitle to the browser.
Let's say we had previously assigned
a value to $pagetitle, by using the following
expression (somewhere in the beginning of the
same page, for example):
<? $pagetitle='This is my page!'; ?>
Then what the browser would receive is:
<html>
<head>
<title>This is my page!</title>
</head>
etc...
As you can see, as far as the browser is concerned,
this is just HTML...
