Bug or feature ?

[Laiverd.COM]

Within a website I'm working on I include price tables through a php
include() statement. Each of these tables itself is derived from a template.
So in each page based on a template, I'm including a price table which is
also based on a template.

As these tables are included through php I did not expect them to show up in
edit mode in Contribute (CS3), but as it is, they do show up. All very nice
and dandy of course; only thing is I get slapped with dozens of javascript
errors when trying to change data in these tables.

First question:
Is this a bug or a feature; and if a feature, how come the php include
statement is obviously rendered in edit mode, while other php statements
aren't (which I would expect).

Second question:
How to overcome these highly irritating multiple javascript errors as soon
as I'm trying to edit these tables. I was expecting that I would have to
send the editor to a special folder containing all the pricetables. I still
can of course, but these tables show up in the page they belong so the
editor will definitely be tempted to edit them there; with all resulting
javascript errors.

Tnx for any input,
John

To answer my own question partially:

Including php files like

<?php include_once("file.php"); ?>

Would cause errors while in edit mode in Contribute.

The solution:

<?php
//
include_once("file.php");
?>

So far: "Keep it simple stupid"
