hi, i am wonder if it is possible to have external php much like external javascript works:

<script language="javascript" src="blah.js"></script>

is there anything like this for php? i did some searching, but nothing made sense to me.

i am very new to php (i know my way around js and html tho) so try and keep it simple.

thank you for any help u can provide me with.

There is a major difference between javascript and php...javascript runs on the client and php runs on the server. So, the answer to your question is no.

If you haven't already, visit http://www.php.net

Well, not necessarily. The PHP interpreter will treat

<script language="php">...</script>

As

<?php ... ?>

So yes, you can include PHP code within <script> tags, but the browser will NEVER see these script tags, as they are removed by the PHP interpreter and replaced with whatever output PHP generates within those tags.

If you want to reference another PHP document, do this:

<script language="PHP">include("other_document.php");</script>
