PHP File help

[butchermanj]

I don't know if I named the title right, but I'm opening a storefront website. Can I save the products in a php file and use the product.php where ever on the site? And that way when I change the original product.php file, the change occurs everywhere that product.php file is?

I've searched this site, I tried to Google it, with no luck.

Thanks

you will need to create a database, preferably in mysql, which contains all your product informations and what ever else needs storing. this information is then called via php from the database and processed accordingly.

alternatively, you could download a pre-made shopping cart such as oscommerce or zen cart.
