note 52342 added to function.include

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: include "http://MyServer.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. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+52342 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52342&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52342&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52342&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52342&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52342&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+52342&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
