using php in themes.inc.php

how to use php code in the file themes.inc.php between <<<EOT and EOT;

[Joachim Müller]

1) Don't edit include/themes.inc.php! Edit themes/yourtheme/theme.php instead
2) Heredoc syntax: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.syntax.heredoc

I am confused about the heredoc, well simply want to use php include(); function to include php files between {IMAGE} and {TITLE} on displayimage.php
so how could i do that.

[Joachim Müller]

Just end the hereodc stamement, include your stuff and the re-start it. Example:

Code Select Expand

$foobar = <<< EOT
<ul>
<li>some content</li>
<li>yet some more content</li>
</ul>
EOT;might become

Code Select Expand

$foobar = <<< EOT
<ul>
<li>some content</li>
<li>yet some more content</li>
EOT;
// do some custom PHP stuff here
include('your/custom/include.php');
// re-start the heredoc-definition of the variable. Note the dot in front of the equal sign.
$foobar .= <<< EOT
</ul>
EOT;However, don't forget that you're populating a variable - you need to know your way around in PHP to accomplish what you're up to.

the include file works but the file display at the top of the window.

[Joachim Müller]

Probably because you're not populating the variable, but just output your stuff. As suggested: you need to understand PHP to do what you're up to. No use in discussing this on the abstract level. Post a real life link and the code you actually applied.

Code Select Expand

$template_display_media = <<<EOT
..........
.....
...
EOT;
print "my custom php";
$template_display_media.= <<<EOT
..........
.....
...
EOT;
