Very simple problems, good to see ur getting the hang of it :)
the first is, you have defined your variables after you include the page, so
that the echo is outputting a blank variable...
so instead of:

i just changed the opening and closing tags a little (you didnt need so
many) but the main change is, now the variables come before the included
file, so that the include file can access those variables too.

PHP parses includes inline, so whatever the scope is where the file is
included, is the scope of the variables that the include contains. You can
declare the variables global in your fuction and it will use what was

Hi,
The best way to do this (it's only my opinion, I'm sure there are many other
ways but this way works for me) is to create a .php file and fill it with

probably recommended, but you will need to tell the server not to

Maybe you could check the referrer and only display if from the webserver?

Yes, you can use .htacess for that purpose though you don't need to password

do it.

Hi, i just finished my first really big project
we use what could be described as a network of includes in binarycloud, and
have seen very little performance impact, especially given the complexity of
the stuff we're doing.
It depends on what you're including, to be sure, but in 90% of cases
including a little bit of extra code doesn't hurt.
Think of a library:
you make yourself a bunch of files to use somewhere later, and when you need
any of them - include it.
Functions, classes whatever but not IFs and calculation staff: these
would always have to be read...
