    snippets of php

    I have a fairly large .php page that is 99% html with two teeny tiny
    snippets of PHP: one near the beginnning of the page, the other near the
    end. Is there an easy way to get the second script to execute first? Both
    scripts echo small bits of html, so they have to stay where they are within
    the context of the page.

    Thoughts?

      Alexander,

      You could put the second script before the first script so that it
      executes first... then to get the HTML, store the actual string of HTML
      code in a variable, and echo it at the bottom of the page where it is
      displaying right now. Hope that works.

          If they have to stay where they are then why do you need to execute the
          second script before the first one?

              The first script displays some text (a page heading) based on criteria x,y
              and z. The problem is that in some instances, the second script can change
              the value of 'z' hence changing wha the page heading should read. Make
              sense?
