    Hey, I am new to PHP and do not know much. How am I able to create a template so that it will be the base layout for all my HTML pages. I code using notepad and my website is all html.

    Can anybody help so that all I have to do is change them all once so that I never have to change them again if I want to change the layout.

    Many thanks.

    Layouts you can create three ways

    1. CSS (using external style sheets)
    2. Using sepearate php files and including them in main
    3. Using Smarty based template system(it seperate design from your coding in php)

    It depends on requirements you can use all the three ways in your project.
    All this require knowledge of HTML,CSS,PHP,SMARTY
    Regards
