I thought this would be fairly easy, but, I can't figure out how to load the
contents of a file into a variable so I can output it later.
The file to be loaded is in my include_path on the server and does contain
some HTML.
file_get_contents() is exactly what I need, but, it only works on a CVS

it directly. How can I do this?
Look 4 implode() in the function list

Implode isn't really what I need, I just want to load an entire file into a
single string variable.
However, I figured out the problem shortly after posting that first message
(of course). Because the file being opened is in the include_path, it seems
Hi Monty,
I've been trying to do the same thing with no success. Would you be so kind
as to show me how you finally did it? I'm not too clear what you meant by:
So, if I replace the filesize($filename) command with a hard-coded number,
it works.

Yes, it IS what you need. Plus, to work around your other problems
mentioned in later posts...
In 4.3 you would use file_get_contents()
In prior versions I would suggest:
$fp = fopen('filename','r');
$string = fread($fp, filesize('filename'));
fclose($fp);
The implode(file()) stuff is very memory-inefficient.
