Yes, it works on Linux/Apache. But the results are not what you might expect. When one normally uses the include statement, you intend to process some php file, not the output from such a file. For example: nfo.php contains, located at http://www.myserver.com/nfo.php : ------BEGIN FILE--------- <?php function nfo($addr) { return getnamebyaddr($addr); } echo nfo($REMOTE_ADDR); ?> -------END FILE----------- test.php contains, located at http://www.otherserver.com/test.php : ------BEGIN FILE--------- <?php include('http://www.myserver.com/nfo.php'); echo nfo($REMOTE_ADDR); ?> -------END FILE----------- When you visit http://www.otherserver.com/test.php, the nfo function is not defined, but results are returned by the include because the server connects to http://www.myserver.com and correctly includes the results (output) from that visit. It is essentially an alternative to fopen('http://www.myserver.com/nfo.php') if you just want to echo all the results of the fopen. -----Original Message----- You are right, it doesn't seem to work with windows, I don't know if it works with *nix either?
