Banner expiration variable, how to grab across pages?
<p>I've got a page displaying multiple banners on large-format displays. The banners are placed by hand into an array on one page (main index page per display), and then an include is done on the content-rotation code.</p>

<p>I recently jury rigged code to incorporate an expiration on the banners for when our web designer isn't around to change them after the event on the banner has passed. I made a 2nd array on the index pages and filled it with "mktime(0,0,0,0,0,2020)" (don't expire anytime soon) as dates in the same array spots as the banners from the first array ([1] from the first array would correspond to [1] from the 2nd array) and then added code to the content-rotation page to only display the banner page if the date minus today (time()) was greater than 0.</p>

<p>This is my execution as a java programmer... Obviously I'd want to embed the expiration times into the individual pages but I don't know enough PHP to know how to pull a $expire variable from each page, unless I'm thinking too much like a java programmer. In any case is there a better way of executing this in php? </p>
