note 92467 added to function.include-once

I do a lot of my web development using AJAX, and therefor at the top of a lot of my php pages I have an if statement to check to see if a post variable for a function call exists, then call that function if it exists. Ie: <?php if($_fnc = $_POST['fnc']) { $GLOBALS['suppressOutput'] = true; unset($_POST['fnc']); $return = call_user_func($_fnc, $_POST); if(is_string($return)) print $return; else print json_encode($return); } ?> The problem with this and include once, is if one of your first include files has this code at the top it will try to run the function before evaluating all the functions in the other include files. So you will get functions not being found. This isn't the most elegant solution, however you can use a globals variable as a flag. If the files flag is the only one set and none others are set then include the file. A more elegant solution would be a function called "include_last". ---- Server IP: 66.207.199.35 Probable Submitter: 24.57.89.111 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include-once.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/92467 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92467/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92467/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92467/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92467/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92467/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92467/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92467 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/92467 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
