I have strange problem, I make for example 3 files main.html style.css index.php,
then when I open index.php which read main.html and print to output I get different appearance than when I opening main.html, do you know what I making wrong ?
HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>aa</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style2.css"/>
</head>
<body>
<div id="container">
a
</div>
</body></html>
CSS:
body
{
width: 100%;
padding:0;
margin: 0;
background: #f6f6f6;
}
#container
{
margin: 0 ;
padding: 0;
background: #f6f6f6;
}
PHP:
<?php
$output = file_get_contents("main2.html");
echo $output;
?>
This main2.html
This is index.php
Where you have this:
<?php
$output = file_get_contents("main2.html");
echo $output;
?>
Just simply change to
<?php include ('main2.html');
Use the PHP Require Function.
//PHP
<?php
require 'main.html';
?>
Also you should set the width: 100% on the header not on the body.
http://php.net/manual/en/function.file-get-contents.php
file_get_contents — Reads entire file into a string
http://php.net/manual/en/function.include.php
The include (or require) statement takes all the text/code/markup that exists in the specified file and copies it into the file that uses the include statement.
So better use include or require. Note : I am writing from a mobile that's why it is not so formatted.
I agree with #jordan davis "Also you should set the width: 100% on the header not on the body."
I find solution, i must set php file encoding to ANSI or I set all files encoding UTF-8 without BOM + header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8'); to php file.
In my last template system I used this function:
private function read_file($filename){
$code = '';
if(file_exists($filename)){
$templatefile = fopen($filename, 'r');
while(!feof($templatefile)){
$code = $code.fgets($templatefile, 1024);
}
fclose($templatefile);
}
return $code;
}
That works perfectly for me. Insted of file_get_content im using fopen to open the File and then with fgets im reading the Content and finally it has to be closed with fclose. See the PHP.net for further Information about the function.
You can also add some Code for a 404 Message if your Template File doesn't exist.

I'm using wkhtmltopdf to generate my pdf files. I've left the generation alone for some time and for whatever reason it's not generating the header and footer anymore.
Things I've tried so far (will update this when more answers come in):
Having the doctype, html, head and body tags ion the header and footer
Chaning the paths to the header and footer to absolute paths (Even using complete absolute paths from the drive forward C:/xampp... does not work.) It might be worth pointing out that changing the filename to something that doesn't exist does not throw an error. So I don't know if it finds the files. Maybe someone can tell me a good way to test this?
This is my header file:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>PDF header</title>
<style>
html {
display: block;
}
body {
font-family: Calibri, "Segoe Ui Regular", sans-serif;
letter-spacing: 0px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body style="padding-top: 30px">
<img src="../../images/logo_extra.jpg" style="width: 100%;"/>
</body>
</html>
This is my main file:
<?php
session_start();
require __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';
use Knp\Snappy\Pdf;
$pdf = new Pdf('pdf\wkhtmltopdf\bin\wkhtmltopdf');
header('Content-Type: application/pdf');
// header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="offerte.pdf"');
$pdf->setOption('header-html', 'pdf/header.html');
$pdf->setOption('footer-html', 'pdf/footer.html');
$pdf->setOption('load-error-handling','ignore');
// I know there is a 'cover' function in WKHTMLTOPDF
$file = file_get_contents('pdf/cover.php');
echo $pdf->getOutputFromHtml($file);
?>
And as always, please:
Give me an explanation and maybe an example but not just a bunch of working code!
PS: If you see any other mistakes, please let me know.
wkhtmltopdf has an issue with header/cover/footer. I didn't dig into it very deep as adding margins did solve it for me:
<?php
session_start();
require __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';
use Knp\Snappy\Pdf;
$pdf = new Pdf('pdf\wkhtmltopdf\bin\wkhtmltopdf');
header('Content-Type: application/pdf');
//just set margins
$pdf->setOption('margin-top', 20);
$pdf->setOption('margin-bottom', 15);
$pdf->setOption('margin-left', '0');
$pdf->setOption('margin-right', '0');
$pdf->setOption('header-html', 'pdf/header.html');
$pdf->setOption('footer-html', 'pdf/footer.html');
$pdf->setOption('load-error-handling','ignore');
$file = file_get_contents('pdf/cover.php');
echo $pdf->getOutputFromHtml($file);
?>
Description
Second problem is weird - nonexisting filename should throw an error. Comment out header and try then with false filename, snappys AbstractGenerator should say something...
I need to display html source code form other php file.
I have two file
code.php
index.php (I hope I can convert the code.php to html source code.)
code.php:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <?php $color = "red"; echo $color; ?> </body> </html>
index.php (I hope I can convert the code.php to html source code.)
$php_to_html = file_get_contents("code.php");
$html_encoded = htmlentities($php_to_html);
echo $html_encoded;
but when i run the index.php file, the result is
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <?php $color = "red"; echo $color; ?> </body> </html>
but I hope I can see the result is
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> red </body> </html>
any idea how can i do this ,thanks!!!
You want to execute the PHP, so include it and capture the output:
ob_start();
include("code.php");
$php_to_html = ob_get_clean();
$html_encoded = htmlentities($php_to_html);
echo $html_encoded;
If you want the HTML to be rendered as HTML then don't use htmlentities().
Optionally (not the best way) but you can execute it by retrieving from the URL:
$php_to_html = file_get_contents("http://www.example.com/code.php");
$html_encoded = htmlentities($php_to_html);
echo $html_encoded;
Buffer output and include it:
ob_start();
include_once('code.php');
$html = ob_get_clean();
By using output buffering, any output is not sent to the browser, but instead kept in memory. This allows you to run the code, and get the output as a variable. ob_get_clean() flushes the buffer (in this case into our $html variable), and then stops buffering, allowing you to continue as normal. :-)
My problem is that I cannot access a PHP variable from a CSS file loaded like this from index.php:
<link href="css/style.php" rel="stylesheet">
In the style.php file, I have this:
<?php header("Content-type: text/css; charset: UTF-8");
$myClassName = 'myClass'; ?>
.<?= $myClassName?> {
font-weight: bold;
}
in my index.php I have this:
<span class='<?= $myClassName?>'>this is a text</span>
But $myClassName return an empty string like it doesn exists...it does mean that I cannot access the PHP variable like this....is there someone have maybe a trick..?
I really need to set the css classnames with PHP variables from the css file and be able to get them back to my index.php
Under the header, do $css = $_GET['css']; or replace it with wherever you are initializing the variable from.For example:
<?php
header('Content-Type: text/css');
$css = $_GET['css'];
?>
body {
<?= $css ?>border-radius: 3px
}
I currently have a php file that I'm using as a template but I need it to read in data from another php file that I'm using for the page content. I'm doing it this way to save on code and time, however it doesn't appear to be working. I have done a test with shorter amounts of code but it still isn't working. they are both .php files.
Code -
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$temp = 'test-2.php';
$file = fopen($temp, 'r');
$cont = fread($file, filesize($temp));
print $cont;
fclose($file);
?>
</body>
test-2.php
<?php
echo 'hello world';
?>
just use <?php include('test-2.php'); ?> surely that'll do what you want?

The download.php is a ready made API php script to provide webmasters upload to their FTP. Webmasters can be choose many options(e.g: download.php?words=2000&sort=popular&type=xml) from a form, then submit the form to get their custom API script.
This is the line that will replace the options after they submit the form.:
$url = "http://api.xxx.com/info.php?words=".$_GET['words']."&sort=".$_GET['sort']."&type="$_GET['type'];
This is the code to force download. But i don't know how to wrap whole page with $content = "";. I know how to wrap the HTML codes but how to wrap the PHP function and codes on the page?
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="download.php");
print $content;
Not sure if that is what yo want; but you could create a second script that calls the first one, gets the output, and sends that with the mentioned headers:
<?php
$words = (int) $_GET['words'];
$sort = $_GET['sort'];
$url = sprintf("http://localhost/wherever/download.php?words=%d&sort=%s&type=xml", $words, $sort);
$content = file_get_contents($url);
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="download.php");
print $content;
?>
Call that file "force_download.php" and let the users call Download php file instead.
