How do I include header and footer with layout in Zend Framework?

I would like to let Zend_Layout include header.phtml and footer.phtml with [layouy name].phtml.

How do I do that? I tried to read codes in Zend_Layout, Zend_Layout_Controller_Plugin_Layout. I still can't figure out it..

Solution

  • You could include your header and footer files from within your layout.phtml file. Here's an example:

    <div id="header"><?= $this->render('layouts/header.phtml') ?></div>
<div id="nav"><?= $this->render('layouts/nav.phtml') ?></div>
<div id="content"><?= $this->layout()->content ?></div>
<div id="footer"><?= $this->render('layouts/footer.phtml') ?></div>
