There is nothing wrong with what your doing, i use this sort of thing
for all the big sites i make, i use a page class and use methods to
create the header and footer, so your concept is good. I would
investigate your html_head() function, to make sure its actually
returning something. Sinse your 'print'ing it, it must return some
text.....
example
function html_head() {
$html = "<html....................................";
return $html;
}
i prefer to escape from php inside my header fucntion, and just not
print it..
eg.
function header() {
<?
<html
<head
<title........
?>
}
then i call it with $page->header();
hope that helps....?
