Displaying an external page inside a table
This tutorial will show you how to display a web page (html, php, asp, whatever) inside a table of a seperate page. Many web-designers use this, as a main page can be made up of many different pages per 'section' of the website. This makes for simple editing of each section. The best way to utilise this is to design all of your tables and layout in the index page, and the external pages can simply be the pure content, ready to be edited in a few seconds. No more scrambling through code to find your text.
Lets make a small website for our example.

Open a new file in textedit, notepad, dreamweaver, whatever you use.

Create a table

<table width="130" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
<tr>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>

Now open a new file in your program. Type your words. (you may use css/html formatting if you wish) andsave it as a web page (php, htm, ect ect). For this example we will call it 'content.html'

Now lets go back to the original page, and enter the code to display content.html inside out table.

<?PHP
include("content.html");
?>

So our file will now be

<table width="130" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
<tr>
<td>

<?PHP
include("content.html");
?>

</td>
</tr>
</table>

Save this as a .php file.

Upload it to your webserver that has php installed, and view the file. You will see the contents of content.html inside your php file!
Imagine your site is made up of lots and lots of features. You ahve included many different files for your different sections. To edit one particular section, all you have to do it find that file and edit. Simple!

nah, IMO iFrames are much better because they work even on different webservers, if anyone wants a free iFrame generator click here
