PHP include producing strange result
9 April 2012 at 7:53pm
Hi everyone!
At the moment I have a site set up in in SS with:
Page.ss:
<head>
<body>
<% include Header %>
<div id="main_content" class="container_12">$Layout
<% include Footer %>etc
And if at any point I, for example, even call <? echo "hi"; ?> from within ANY <div> tags it will wrap another entire body around the rest of the site and the output will appear right at the top with the site's content pushed down by that much.
I gather this is something to do with the page now yet having fulling formed or something but does anyone have a decent explanation and solution to this problem?
Thanks very much!

You cannot embed PHP in SilverStripe templates. You should wrap your PHP in functions and pass the result to the template. For instance..
Page.php
function SayHi() {
return "Hi";
}Page.ss
$SayHi

I see, thank you!
This leads me to another question.
Say I make a new page type, say, "Login.ss".
In the corresponding "Login.php" file may I place a function which in itself performs an include of another PHP script to receive its output?

Sure! If you haven't already I recommend doing tutorial 2 as that covers creating page types.

Yeah I've been going into overdrive with SS lately. I used to design stuff and code in PHP/HTML quite proficiently and it's not taken me very long to get to grips with most of this, which is a testament to the system!
Thanks for the quick replies.

Make sure that function is inside the Page_Controller or Page class (inside the { } parts).

Haha beat me to it! I realised pretty much as soon as I'd posted. Doh!
