Php code to include header.php not working correctly

Question

I am using these codes so that I can pass the file needed or other attribute through variables but it is not working properly. I don't know what the problem is because the code looks pretty fine to me. Index page does not show any content from header's page.

helper.php

<?php
function render($template, $data = array())
{
    $path = $template . ' .$php ';
    if(file_exists($path))
    {
        extract($data);
        require($path);
    }
}

header.php

<?php require_once('helper.php') ?>
<!doctype html>
<head>
    <title><?php echo htmlspecialchars($title); ?></title>
</head>
<body>

Index.php

<?php
    require_once('helper.php');
    render('header', array('title' => 'Index'));
?>

Well, at least one issue will be ' .$php '. Unless you really have a space before the extension . and a $ before php, but that seems unlikely. — Jonnix

This is wrong:

$path = $template . ' .$php ';

You are adding spaces and a $ sign to your path:

$path = $template . '.php';

I believe you must want this line

$path = $template . ' .$php ';

to actually be this:

$path = $template . '.php';
