Yeah, I found the documentation on transclusion, but transclusion uses Wiki syntax. I want to include the article in a PHP page that is not actually part of the wiki.

Basically, you have an articles named Cat that you want displayed on the front page, so you would literally add the following to your front page: {{:Cat}} - be warned that doing so will include the ENTIRE article. There may be a way to show only a part of the article, but I don't know how to do that.
Hope this helps.

Hi, Everybody,
I apologize if this is a noob question; I actually consider myself pretty good at digging this type of thing up but after hours upon hours of googling I'm still unable to come up with an answer to what I would think would be a seemingly simple question to answer. Basically I am building a personal website and I would like to use media wiki to store some documentation that I am generating. I have a little menu bar at the top of my page; its pretty simple, just HTML & CSS with tables generated by PHP. If you really want to see it you can just go here http://128.135.217.176. Nothing fancy. Anyway, what I would like to be able to do would be to 'in-line' an article into this page, but without having to use frames or anything like that. The 'body' section of my page is basically just a cell of a table. So the actual 'in-line' PHP code would have to be between a couple of <td> tags.
Anyway, it seems pretty easy to do this using for example, wordpress, using the integration features described here. http://codex.wordpress.org/Integrating_WordPress_with_Your_Website. Is there a way to do anything like this with a mediawiki article?
I apologize if this is such a silly question.
Thanks,
Dan
