Menu
I'm working on a website where the homepage has a dark background, yet all the other pages have a white background.
I am using pho to include a header file to show the logo, navbar, telephone details etc on every page.
As the home page has a dark background, the logo has white text, yet the logo use on the other pages has dark text.
I'm looking for a way of using php, so that I include a single header file on every page. If the homepage has a class of "home" the logo image with white text is shown and on all other pages the logo image with dark text is shown.
something along these lines:
if (body class="home") {
<img src="images/logo-with-white-text" />
else {
<img src="images/logo-with-dark-text" />
};
Is this possible?
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated :)

I'm assuming your homepage currently looks something like this:
<html>
<head>...</head>
<body class="home">
...
<?php include 'header.php'; ?>
...
You could make the class a variable, and reference this variable from the included header file:
<?php $class = 'home'; ?>
<body class="<?php echo $class; ?>">
...
<?php include 'header.php' ?>
...
In header.php:
<?php if (isset($class) && $class == 'home'): ?>
<img src="images/logo-with-white-text" />
<?php else: ?>
<img src="images/logo-with-dark-text" />
<?php endif; ?>
You could check whether you are on the homepage (Depending on your exact implementation) with a snippet like this:
if (basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']) == 'index.php') {
// home page
}
else {
// some other page
}
$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] contains the actually loaded file relative from the host until the query-string:
http://example.com/my/folder.php?a=b => /my/folder.php
For more information have a look at basename in the PHP manual.
