PHP or SS includes

[lozza]

I'm looking to use either PHP includeds or Server Side includes

In your opinion whats the best way to go? Is there anything in it?

Pros and cons for using them please

If you're just using include directives, SSI will be faster as it doesn't have the overhead of initialising the PHP interpreter for each request (which won't be all that much noticable until you hit 100's of hits per second). Apart from that, there's not much in it. You would want to use readfile() rather than include(), in PHP, im guessing.

Any other thoughts on this?

And what about .asp includes?
