  • <em>body</em> - The information which will appear in between the header and the footer of the web site.
  • <em>footer</em> - The information which will appear at the end of your web site.
  <strong>Please Note</strong>: At least one of these elements should exist within the array which is passed into this function or else nothing will be emitted. <strong>Please Note</strong>: Each of these elements can either be a single view or an array of views which will all be displayed.
• array $vars - - An array containing an array of all variables which will be passed to each of the views. Similar to the $views array, will pass all variables which are listed for those elements to only their corresponding views. Any variables outside of the three keywords (header, body, footer) will be sent to each of the views. <strong>Please Note</strong>: variables will receive the variable name which corresponds to the key in the array. For example, if you have an array: array ( 'foo' => 'bar' ), within the view, you are able to access this variable through $foo.
