No. It simply does nothing. include_once, and require_once, are made just for that - you can safely include a, say, library file in multiple sources where you need them. If they're already included, the directive will be simply ignored to avoid duplicate definitions. >I think I really should get myself a local server etc installed on my >machine, I tried phpTriad and was not all that pleased and for some reason >FoxServ didnt work on my machine so i uninstalled it...anything else thats >really good out there? The best idea is to install Apache and PHP. You can do this even on a notebook running Win98 (shudder). (Just MHO) -- >O Ernest E. Vogelsinger (\) ICQ #13394035 ^ http://www.vogelsinger.at/
