Hi,
I'm a kind of newbie to PHP but have been with Java Servlets for years...I
would appreciate it if someone would answer this question for me please.
Why use a template engine?
isnt it much easier to include a header and footer file with "include"?
eg:
<?php include "headerblah.php" ?>
thats soooo much easier that learning some templating "language"...isnt it?
I visited the smarty template site.....
Cheers,
-Ryan
