I need to add something to my website that will change througout the website not just the first page
Iam doing a sports site and iam putting up a ladder on the left side in a table and also its going to be on all the pages, but i dont want to edit every single page twice a week, how can i use one file or something to add to it so i only have to edit one thing and it will all change?
ThanksHow do i add a table or something to my site so i dont have to always change it on each site?
You need to consider a database, mysql is best, and use php to build the dynamic part of the page from this data. So for a table giving results you need to build yourself an input page for the data (only for your use) and a script to read and display the query results. something like :
$result = mysql_query (';select result1,result2,result3 from result_table where id = '$person_id'';);
while ($record = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
$display_string .=';%26lt;td%26gt;//or however you want to show it
$record[result1]
$record[result2]
$record[result3]
%26lt;/td%26gt;';;}
By using then .= you can add to the string for as many lokups as you like then use :
%26lt;?php
echo $display_string;
?%26gt;
I have not gone into database connections as they vary depending on the system.How do i add a table or something to my site so i dont have to always change it on each site?
You *really* need to switch to a CMS for your websites.
But without switching, you can solve *that* particular problem with server side includes.
