The aim of today was to use the process of PHP to create an individual file, in this case’ box’ so there is a lot less code but the process still works on the webpage. There was an introduction to the % which stands for modular operator.
Below is the end outcome in my index and then my box file.
Index=
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Format Code</title>
<link href=”css/styles.css” rel=”stylesheet” >
</head>
<body>
<div class=”container”>
<?php $title = “Box”; ?>
<?php $numberOfBoxes = 6; ?>
<?php include ‘nav.php’; ?>
<div class=”top-title”>
<h1><?php echo ‘Home Page – PHP’; ?></h1>
</div>
<div class=”clearfix”></div>
<?php while($numberOfBoxes > 0) { ?>
<?php include ‘box.php’ ?>
<?php $numberOfBoxes — ; ?>
<?php } ?>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Box=
<div class=”box <?php if (($numberOfBoxes % 3) == 1) { echo ” box-right”; } ?>”>
<h2><?php echo $title; ?></h2>
