here we go, from Zeev:

As of PHP 4.0.3, the implementation of require() no longer behaves that way, and processes the file 'just in time'. That means that in the 1st example, the file will be processed a hundred times, and in the 2nd example, it won't be processed at all. That's the way include() behaves (in all versions of PHP) as well.

Aah; so I leaned something new today :) My production systems are still PHP3; PHP4.0.4 is still on my test system. - steve

'require' ALWAYS includes the file; 'include' is what you want here. not since v4.0.2(?) came out ... I heard from Zeev that require() and include() behave now just about the same. Read our posting regarding this topic of 1-2 month ago.. Cheers, Maxim Maletsky The tradeoff is that include is slightly slower.
