Jessica,

I used that technique before PHP was available (for all readers, the key term here is 
Server Side Includes, e.g. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/howto/ssi.html.html). With PHP 
you're a lot more flexible so that you should get rid of your shtml structure, 
especially as PHP is much faster what really makes a difference if you've got many 
includes.

For this simple example, the syntax is quite similar. In your main document, simply 
type:

<?PHP
   $title="some title";
   include("/include/header.html");
?>

and in the header.html:

<title><?PHP echo $title; ?></title>

That's it. But remember to either set *.html files to be parsed through PHP in your 
web server configuration or rename the main document to .php (or .php3 or .php4 or 
whatever your web server needs).
