From: AmaZed@charter.net Operating system: Win2k PHP version: 4.0.4 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Include's & passing varibles on Win* Ok I was tring to include a file and tring to pass a var, tried many ways.. needless to say I couldnt get it to work. <?php inlcude("links.php?show=true"); ?> -- no good <?php include("http://www.amazed.to/links.php?show=true"); ?> -- no good So I get on IRC, no on really had a answer for my question 'Why cannt I include, and pass varibles on a windows server?' bug list: http://bugs.php.net/bugs-php3.php?id=514 says you cannt include("http://server/file.php") if you cannt include a server, how can you pass a var through include? I am not sure if you consider this a 'bug' but, it would be nice to include & passing vars ;\ -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=8835&edit=1
