PHP+HTML

[jgeoff]

Hi -

 

I'm not sure if it's just my lack of PHP knowledge or what, but I'm trying to include some HTML in column_right.php and column_left.php, and despite adding it to the BOTTOM of those PHP files, the browser always places the HTML elements ABOVE the rendered PHP code.

 

I can't show my site because it's password protected and under development, but here's an example...

 

Say I have my column_left.php file, and I want to place contact info there, on the bottom, so it appears on every page:

 

<?php
/*
 $Id: column_left.php 1739 2007-12-20 00:52:16Z hpdl $

 }

 if ((USE_CACHE == 'true') && empty($SID)) {
echo tep_cache_manufacturers_box();

include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'manufacturers.php');
 }

 require(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'whats_new.php');
 require(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'search.php');
 require(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'information.php');
?>

Same for column_right.php -- say I want the Shopping Cart box, then something else (HTML), and then more php boxes...?

 

Any way around this? :blink:

 

Thanks!

osC is table based.

 

Try this code:

 

<tr><td>

*******************************************
</td></tr>
