What's in "banner.inc"? Because, as noted in the manual, an included file
can have a return value *if you give it one*. If you have code there
that's echoing/printing, that will indeed spit out immediately. The trick
is to instead capture that output into a variable and return it.
//"simpleinclude.inc"
<?php
$ret=somefunct("foo");
$ret.=anotherfunct("bar");
return $ret;
?>
//"otherpage.php"
<?php
$banner=include("simpleinclude.inc");
...
echo $banner;
?>
