You don't pass the value to that file, you simply tell the preprocessor of PHP to copy the contents of forums/ssi.php file into the source code before executing the script. You do NOT call the ssi.php by that! As you are stating you want to call http://mydomain.com/forums/ssi.php?a=active why are you including the file in there? The statement about allow_url_fopen, 0 setting controls access to remote-resources, so if you are allowed to do something like fopen("http://...") or include("http://.."). Thus it doesn't have anything to do with your include. -- Dennis Sterzenbach www.darknoise.de
