How can PHP be used to automatically generate a webpage with a consistent header, footer, navigation, and search bar?

To automatically generate a webpage with a consistent header, footer, navigation, and search bar using PHP, you can create separate files for the header, footer, navigation, and search bar, and then include these files in your main PHP file using the `include` or `require` function. This way, whenever you need to make changes to the header, footer, navigation, or search bar, you only need to update the corresponding file, and it will reflect across all pages that include it. 

<!-- header.php -->
<header>
    <h1>Header Content</h1>
</header>

<!-- navigation.php -->
<nav>
    <ul>
        <li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
    </ul>
</nav>

<!-- searchbar.php -->
<div>
    <input type="text" placeholder="Search...">
    <button>Search</button>
</div>

<!-- footer.php -->
<footer>
    <p>© 2022 Your Company</p>
</footer>

<!-- index.php -->
<?php
    include 'header.php';
    include 'navigation.php';
    include 'searchbar.php';
?>

<!-- Main content goes here -->

<?php
    include 'footer.php';
?>
