Re: [PHP-DB] Problem with include()
Hi Peter, I'll be surprised if that's it as I am running this through an Apache server which insists on the \ being / Also all references to my images are / and they work fine. In fact, I think I mentioned, it calls the poll.php if I drop the argument part (?id=KnChooseBoots). It's all very strange. Thanks for the response. I might just give your suggestion just to be sure.

RE: [PHP-DB] Problem with include()
That sounds the likely answer to me too - you don't generally try to send a parameter to something you're including. if you're just trying to go to that page after executing some code, do a print Location:yadayadayada...?id=KnChooseBoots -Original Message- From: Bruno Gimenes Pereti [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 13 November 2001 13:41 To: PHP-DB Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Problem with include() Does include accept parameter? I have never tried. I think php will try to find a file called poll.php?id=KnChooseBoots not a file called poll and give argument for it.

Re: [PHP-DB] Problem with include()
According to the php manual it can pass args and values. The value I pass in through the $id then determines what poll is presented to the visitor (poll.php opens a file called $id.txt, which contains the poll's title, values, etc). So I set the id variable depending on where the poll script is invoked (i.e. what will the visitor be voting for at this point). I'm confused. I going to have to think of a work-around (sometimes known as a kludge :) ) Thanks -torrent Bruno Gimenes Pereti [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message 008a01c16c48$d3ba94b0$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:008a01c16c48$d3ba94b0$[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

Re: Re: [PHP-DB] Problem with include()
The manual reads include (\http://someserver/file.php?varone=1vartwo=2\;); and... require($DOCUMENT_ROOT . \/header.html\); As you can see the upper one among the above line refers to opening a remote file for inclusion via http. If it the server is somewhat properly configured you will not be able to download the script source for execution from there, so it makes sense to pass parameters. Which HTTP fortunately supports. Unfortunately, local file systems do not necessarily support passing parameters to files being openend for read access. Wich wouldn\'t make sense, because it\'s just being read, not executed. It will tough be executed _after_ being read... As a part of the current runtime environment, sharing the same variable namespace, and stuff. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
