Michael hit the nail on the head with option b. I am sorry to have
wasted everyone's time. Truly, I searched and searched and have never
come accross this function before. Must be getting old.

I'm not sure what you mean by "accept a variable as input".
a) php -r '$s = "./hmm.php"; include($s);'
Works for me.
b) <http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.eval.php>

What follows is a feature request. Searching the existing feature
requests have not turned up any similar results.
I have found that it might be convenient to allow include() and/or
require() to be able to accept a variable as input.
A couple of scenarios that this might be useful:
* Caching script segments
* Evaluating PHP inside of templates
My workaround has been to dump a variable to disk and then include it
as a file, after determining a unique file name to use. After
including the file, it was deleted from disk. This was for a
templating system that could recursively include other templates that
may or may not include php.
The reason for the approach was to reuse php as a the template
scripting language, as well. Performance on my test server has been
okay, but I am sure that with a large amount of traffic, the file i/o
would slow the process down considerably.
