Use include("new.php"), not the full URL. The way you're doing it now, your
making a brand new request for the _result_ of a .php page. There is no
relation to this page and new.php when you request it in this manner. If you
just do include('new.php'), then it takes the _php_ code (the whole file)
from new.php and inserts it into this file and runs it. So then your
variables will still work.
also, take away the "global $name" calls, they don't do anything.

Same thing here... You're getting the parsed _result_ of footer.php, not the
code.
