I'm new to PHP so I was experimenting with include(). I noticed (for me) a strange behaviour. I discovered that, after a couple of days, my script was running very very very slow. Then I discovered more than 3000 of little files in my Windows\\Temp directory. I noticed that every time I use include() like this: <?php include 'http://127.0.0.1/test/index.php?id=3&t=1' ?> a file was created in my Windows\\Temp directory each time with a different name: php2A.tmp, php51.tmp, phpD1.tmp... etc. Every file contains the HTML output from the index.php. I replaced include() with require() and, as I expected, the same result. The same applies to include_once() and require_once(). Then I tried <?php readfile('http://127.0.0.1/test/index.php?id=3&t=1') ?> and the problem was solved. I have no idea why this happens, but is very annoying and it can slow down your script. I got many timeout errors. I hope this will help. I'm running WinXP Pro, PHP 4.3.4. and Apache 1.3.29. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+42081 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+42081&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+42081&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
