[Solar-talk] Embeded php files

[Sean Montague]

Hi Antti,

I'm playing with this, an I can't seem to get it to work. What I have 
for directory structure is the standard:

"Vendor/App/Index.php"
"Vendor/App/Index/Layout/_content.php"
"Vendor/App/Index/View/index.php"

Where <?php echo $this->layout_content; ?> is in my _content.php and 
"Vendor/App/Index/View/index.php" is what gets written out. In FireFox I 
<?php include $this->template('_content.php'); ?> to get what I want. 
FireFox can read svg inline, but IE. Referring to your response, I tried:
<embed id="svg" width="100%" height="100%" src="<?php echo 
$this->action('App/Index.php') ?>" type="image/svg+xml" />,
<embed id="svg" width="100%" height="100%" src="<?php echo 
$this->action('App/Index/View/index.php') ?>" type="image/svg+xml" /> & 
just to be sure,
 <embed id="svg" width="100%" height="100%" src="<?php echo 
$this->action('App/Index/Layout/_content.php') ?>" type="image/svg+xml" />

None of these worked. I even put Vendor in the path. I looked up 
Solar_App_Bookmarks on the website, but it didn't help much. Were any of 
these three correct and maybe something else went wrong?  I have an 
alternative, but I want to avoid it because I would need to move the 
embedded doc into the docroot and out of Solar.

Thanks!
Sean
