Seperate PHP code page

[Guest]

Is it possible to store PHP code in a seperate file in dreamweaver?  The same way that Visual Studio has a code behind page.  I just think it is much easier to work with the code when it is not mixed in with the html.

This thread has been moved to the Dreamweaver Application Development forum, which deals with PHP and other server-side issues.

Yes. Dreamweaver has full support for PHP includes. However, if you want to use Dreamweaver server behaviors, Dreamweaver automatically inserts them above the DOCTYPE declaration. You would need to move the code manually to external files. Once moved, you would not be able to use the Dreamweaver dialog boxes to edit the server behaviors. However, if you're happy coding yourself, that shouldn't make any difference.
