When using require, I suggest making the filename .php3 or something which executes code and NOT .inc. The reason why I say this is because .inc may not be registered on your server as any file-type so the browser will display the text in the window. I experienced the ability to see my mysql database usernames and passwords when the filename was .inc. When I changed it to .php3, the code was executed and the informaiton wasn't compromised.
