Answer 1

This is an old topic but I use

phpinclude is it's own folder and I keep the footer, header, and common place info in that folder. .js, and .css has it's own as well.

Edit: I use require now. I would rather have a code fail and die rather than give some random string. They are the same except one dies and the other will print out an error or random code. This is for people learning PHP, not old heads.
