What are some common issues when integrating PHP code within layers on a webpage?

One common issue when integrating PHP code within layers on a webpage is variable scope conflicts. To solve this, you can use the `global` keyword to access global variables within a function or use the `$_SESSION` superglobal to pass variables between different layers.

// Example of using the global keyword to access global variables within a function
$globalVar = "Hello from global scope";

function testFunction() {
    global $globalVar;
    echo $globalVar;
}

testFunction(); // Output: Hello from global scope
```

```php
// Example of using the $_SESSION superglobal to pass variables between different layers
session_start();

$_SESSION['sessionVar'] = "Hello from session scope";

// In another layer or file
echo $_SESSION['sessionVar']; // Output: Hello from session scope
