airblaster Posted September 7, 2003 Posted September 7, 2003 In OSC's current state its impossible to include OSC into a site without using frames or modifying dozens of files. To change this I suggest to replace the current header code (the part which includes header.php) with something like this: <!-- header_top //--> <?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'header_top.php'); ?> <!-- header_top_eof //--> <script language="javascript" src="includes/general.js"></script> (lots of JavaScript Code can go here) <!-- header_bottom //--> <?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'header_bottom.php'); ?> <!-- header_bottom_eof //--> <!-- body //--> ........ header_top.php would contain everything till <head> (or the stylesheet definition if it is supposed to be included on every page), and header_bottom.php everything beginning from </head>. The html footer code would also be moved to footer.php. Dynamic titles could still be used if you simply output a variable containing the title of the current page. This method has got several advantages: - removes redundancy of HTML header code (change html header/footer at only 1 place instead of dozens of files) - its possible to include induividual javascript functions and other code that goes between the <head> and </head> only for the files that need the code. - allows users to integrate osCommerce into the Design of their webpage easily (e.g. they can include their php based framework that always displays its own html headers) - its easy to implement
