title: Dynamic header with PHP?
body: <p>I know this is a basic PHP question, and I'm trying to learn the stuff. I very familiar with HTML, CSS and familiar with the CONCEPT of PHP, but not with specifics.</p>
  
  <p>I have always partnered with a back end developer to accomplish this stuff and to set up wordpress sites, etc.</p>
  
  <p>I'm building a very basic four or five page website (a showcase for the client's custom fishing rods: <a href="http://www.tuscaroratackle.com/index2.php" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.tuscaroratackle.com/index2.php</a>). I want to call the page header (as in logo, navigation, etc., not as in the head element) dynamically from a php file, and same thing with the footer, so I don't have to rewrite all the markup on every page for these bits.</p>
  
  <p>I don't intend to use a database for this site, I was just thinking I could call those two bits from another file, as you would in a wordpress setup with the header.php in the wp-content directory.</p>
  
  <p>Is there an easy explanation on how to do this? (I get the basics, just looking for help on the more specific PHP calls that need to be made)</p>
  
  <p>Or, if this is not an answer somebody could easy give, can you point me to a good resource to research it further?</p>
  
  <p>Thx</p>
