  • 0

I am having problems with my php includes and I am wondering if someone can tell what could be wrong with my code. This is how my file set is broken down.

I have two index files. one in bank\index.php and one in bank\onlinebanking\index.php.

I have split my header and footer in two different files. They are listed as
bank\header.inc.php and bank\footer.inc.php. I capture my css from my header for the entire website.

header includes:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Banking Home Page</title>
</head>

<body class="body">
<link href="../_assets/stylesheets/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<div>

<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" background="_assets/images/bkrnd_top.png">
  <tr>
    <td width="50%"><img border="0" src="../_assets/images/bkgrnd_tl.png" width="205" height="61"></td>
    <td width="50%">
      <p align="right"><img border="0" src="../_assets/images/logo.png" width="160" height="61"></td>
  </tr>
</table>
</div>
<div>

<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" background="_assets/images/background_headerarea.png">
  <tr>
    <td width="100%"><font face="Arial" size="2"><b>&nbsp;&nbsp; <font color="#FFFFFF">HOME&nbsp;&nbsp; |&nbsp;&nbsp; TBA&nbsp;&nbsp; |&nbsp;&nbsp; TBA&nbsp;&nbsp; |&nbsp;&nbsp; TBA&nbsp;&nbsp; |&nbsp;&nbsp; TBA&nbsp;&nbsp; |&nbsp;&nbsp; TBA</font></b></font></td>

<td>

</tr>


</table>
<?php require_once('login.inc.php'); ?>

The problem I am having I cannot get my css or my _assets to render correctly for both of my inex files.

If I change the link to something like src=”../_assets/images/bkgrnd_tl.png” it will display correctly in bank\onlinebanking\index.php but it will not display in bank\index.php. If I change the link to src=”_assets/images/bkgrnd_tl.png” it will display in bank\index.php and not in bank\onlinebanking\index.php.

I hope you get the idea what I trying to say. I would like just one header and footer for all the css to render on all pages.

My includes are as such:

bank\onlinebanking\index.php = 

        require_once('../websiteconfig.inc.php');
        require_once('../header.inc.php');    
    ?>

bank\index.php

    Setting up some path variables might help you. Then you could provide an absolute path on all your images and css. Something like:

    define("PATH", "http://www.mysite.com");

    Then you can do something like:

    <img border="0" src="<?php echo PATH; ?>/_assets/images/bkgrnd_tl.png" width="205" height="61">

    You can set up multiple paths that lead to different areas too, like a theme path for example.
