The full qualified URL simply circumvents the relative path issues!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-19 10:55:14] sander@php.net Sorry, I misread the report. include_once() shouldn't open and include the file twice. Anyway, you shouldn't use include_once to grab data from a remote file, use fopen() & co for that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-19 04:17:19] sander@php.net The bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare getID() in http://www.mySite.com/getUserID on line 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16150&edit=1
