Another interesting thing about the included files is that they return the includer's file information when you use server variables. For example let's say you have two files like this: /included.php ========= <? echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?> /caller.php ======= <? include "included.php"; ?> When caller.php is called, PHP will print "/caller.php" although the echo function is actually called from the /included.php file. This might be very useful when you create a logger script which will log the caller page's relative url, time, etc. to a database every time a page is viewed. You would simply use <? include "logthis.php"; ?> at the beginning of each page you would wish to be logged. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+28048 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+28048 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+28048
