note 61720 added to function.include

A basic and simple feature to make sure a script is available only for inclusion and can not be accessed directly via url. Include this snippet before the beginning of the script on the top of your page: <? if (basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']) == basename ( __FILE__ ) ) { $home = 'http://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] . '/'; header ("Location: $home"); die(); } ?> Instead of redirecting to homepage you could of course do anything else like send a 404 or 403 header. ---- Server IP: 193.77.159.244 Probable Submitter: 193.77.114.1 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+61720 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61720&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61720&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61720&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61720&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61720&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61720&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61720&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+61720&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
