Hi all,
at this moment I am working on a script that calculates standings of our
online racing competition. In order to do that, I have to connect to a
database on a remote server.
I have read in the php manual that
[quote]
When a file is include()ed, the code it contains inherits the variable
scope of the line on which the include() occurs. Any variables available
at that line in the calling file will be available within the called
file. If the include() occurs inside a function within the calling file,
then all of the code contained in the called file will behave as though
it had been defined inside that function.
[/quote]
But for some reason, i simply do not get the script to work. I use a
form in the local script to determine which standings are to be shown,
and the value is stored in $serie_id. This is done in the main scope (no
function used). $serie_id can be 2, 3 or 4.
Then I make an include call to the remote script:
include("http://www.someremote.server/calculate_drivers.php";);
In that remote script I use $serie_id to make a database query. But so
far, the query fails because $serie_id is not known.
Are there any known exceptions (f.i. specific server settings) that
might explain why the variable is not known on the remote server?
Thanks in advance!
