----
Something not previously stated here - but found elsewhere - is that if a file is included using a
URL and it has a '.php' extension - the file is parsed by php - not just included as it
would be if it were linked to locally.
This means the functions and (more importantly) classes included will NOT work.
for example:
<?php
include "http://example.com/MyInclude.php";
?>
would not give you access to any classes or functions within the MyInclude.php file.
to get access to the functions or classes you need to include the file with a different extension -
such as '.inc' This way the php interpreter will not 'get in the way' and the
text will be included normally.
