note 21629 added to function.include

I cannot find a way to get includes to work inside a class definition. I have a class with a whole lot of functions and I want to split these functions into separate files to make it easier to manage. When I add the include() call to the class I recieve an error some thing like: parse error: expecting T_VARIABLE..blah blah blah This is a rough idea of how I'm using the include statement: class foo { var $one; var $two; include("functions.php"); } Does anyone have an idea?? -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+21629 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+21629 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+21629
