I am playing around with an idea. I have both a breadcrumb and a YUI menu bar on my page. I took from the opening <html> tag to the opening main content tag and threw them all into a file and include that. I gave the text that goes between <title> a variable. So now each page on the back end looks like:

PHP Code:


			
<?php

  $page_title = 'xxx';

  $bread = 'YYY'; // I give my pages {sitename} :: {article title}

  include_once('header.php');

?>

  {content}

<?php 

  include_once('footer.php');

?>

This makes things so much cleaner and faster. However now the source layout looks crappy. Has anybody done this? Thoughts?
