Yes that is true. But I would strongly recommend against doing that. You should never include anything over HTTP. Its extremely messy, 100% insecure and just a very very bad idea. My spontaneous reaction is to agree with you. On the other hand, are SOAP or XML-RPC overHTTP any more secure in principle? You would need some kind of authentication, of course, unless you just love exposing your code. It's a weird concept, but I was trying to give the guy who started the thread the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he has a good reason for doing it. Maybe the people who implemented this feature in PHP had a good reason for implementing it.
You should have all the files you need to include located on your web server. Yes, I don't know why you would want to keep them on a remote server.
