Hello!
I've run into a situation where I'm using a multiple inc_header idea. This way I can change the look and feel of a page...width, banner rotator, color... etc.
Is there any draw back to my (probably not original) thought of using this way of address.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for reading this,

| As long as you make sure you include all the code in every one of the files I don't see a problem with it. It gets complicated when you have to edit your inc_header though. |

Thank you for that response Jorrit787.
I sometimes wonder if I make the changes corrrectly, I take code out because I don't use it. menu for example I use a js. log-in same thing. Added a js for a different menu. Can this effect the site when the site is busy? Or can I safely say if it works now will it keep on working. Or will one day I go to the site and ...poof... gone.
Thanks,

| If it works now I don't see why wouldn't in the future, unless your custom login for example is extremely resource-intensive, things like that could cause problems when your site gets busier. |

Resource sensitive... meaning if someone logs out... they stay logged in or trying to log in and you keep getting the log-in screen?
Thank you for the lesson Jorrit787 I am appreciating this very much.

Resource intensive, meaning that if your custom scripts involve lots of calls to the database it might slow things down  |

A better method would be to place all common code from your inc_header files into a single, seperate include and only use your custom headers to hold that code that differs across templates.

Wow...I think that I can do this. Makes sense. Even change levels per include.
Shaggy, tribaliztic, thank you.
