HTML structure?

I think this one is simple just explain it a bit please...

Supose I have this index.php (Don't look for script errors)

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
require(home.php)
</body>
</html>

And my home.php (I saw this somewhere and I am wondering, even if it is working is it wrong?) Instead of having again the normal html structure as above, you have:

<body>
some code
</body>

LEAVING OUT all the other tags.

Is this correct? Yes? No? Why?

Thank you

Edit: What if I am calling a js script in my head tag? Would the home.php inherite it?

No, this is not correct, there are quite a bit of errors, but it won't work because of the following reasons:

  1. You don't open/close PHP using the <?php and ?> tags. This way require() just won't execute;
  2. Require() needs quotes (since it's argument should be a string), so require('home.php'); is correct;
  3. As I already changed in point 2: you have to end every argument with a semicolon (;);
  4. You should probably replace the <body></body> tags in home.php with <?php ?> tags, so that Google can't index that page (and can only do it from index.php;

Apart from that you also have these markup errors:

  1. Always use a Doctype. Otherwise your HTML won't validate;
  2. The <title></title> tag is mandatory;

Hope this helps.

Drop the start and end tag in home.php and it'll be ok (check http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php for more information if needed)

Re-iterating what others are saying. It would look and behave the same (most likely), but fails semantically.

That is all.

It is incorrect. For every version of HTML, the body element may only be a child of the html element. It may never be a child of another body element.

Yes. You are including the file, so php is litterally "putting it in between there".

BTW: you now have double body tags.

It probably shouldn't have the <body> tag again, but otherwise okay.
