The code works and displays what is meant to display. However, when I

If you get no error the file is being included properly. What is the

Make sure you have these enabled
allow_url_fopen = On
allow_url_include = On
This might be your problem. They limit things so remote files cannot be access
via fopen/include/etc...

One of them was off when I checked, but it appears that the output does not
change when I have the foreach and the include in the file. This is not in a
function or a subroutine, so this should not have a global problem, I think.
Could there be other things I missed?

Hi,
This is the error I got:
Warning: include() [function.include]: URL file-access is disabled in the
server configuration in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\read.php on line 29
Warning: include(http://www.mysite.com/calculate.php) [function.include]:

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening

When I installed the PHP with Apache, I selected the Unix binary, but the
message above implies that it somehow does not know what file to look for,
right?
Is there somehow I can solve this? My calculate.php is stored on a Linux, while
my read.php is on a Windows.
Thanks in advance.

Alice,
If the two Windows machines are on the same network, you can try to use
Windows' file sharing to do the job for you. For instance,
include('\\servername\dirname\filename.php');
Using HTTP from Windows to Windows would yield the same results as using
HTTP from Linux to Windows. You could host the files on a server that
does not parse PHP, and so they would be transmitted as plain text...
but then you get into issues of disclosing their contents to parties you
would rather leave in the dark (read: hackers).
You might consider using FTP, SCP, or another behind-the-scenes file
transfer agent to accomplish what it is you're trying to do. I believe
PHP already has several functions for use with FTP.
Good luck,

Alice,
If you simply need to execute a remote PHP script and pass variables,
you could do it behind-the-scenes with cURL or AJAX, and pass the
variables in the url (i.e.,
http://www.mysite.com/script.php?param=value). cURL is capable of
retrieving the page (read: the results of the executed script), which
can then be parsed by your local script.
I actually did something like this where I scraped the World of Warcraft
Armory (ok, groan. No, seriously, let it out). I grabbed their XML
pages, parsed the info, and then pushed this info to a script on a
remote site of mine. I had to do this because the remote site I was
working with did not have cURL installed (nor could I install it myself
due to access restrictions). The remote script would return OK or
FAIL, and my script would expect one of these values and react
accordingly.
Is this a little bit more on target? I can supply you with source code
if you would like.
You could also use AJAX to populate an IFRAME with the results of a
remote PHP script, and then parse those values using a hidden form
submission, perhaps. Just some ideas.

So I don't understand why this output is surprising you and I don't understand your question about expecting it to be evaluated remotely. file.php was of course evaluated remotely on server.com. If file.php had written something to the filesysts, for example, then that something would be on server.com not on your server. -Rasmus You can use the output buffer functions to catch the xyz into a var: ?php print !!!; ob_start(); include 'http://server.com/test/echo.php'; $XML = ob_get_clean(); // or use ob_get_contents(); and ob_end_clean() for PHP 4.3 print ???; print '[Between this you'll get your XYZ]'; print $XML; print '[Between this you'll get your XYZ]'; ?

Re: [PHP] include problem
Few days ago I asked the same question and got several excellent answers that helped me to solve the same problem - check the mailing list for 'including files from different sub directories' on 24-10-2003. Nevertheless all those suggestions helped me to solve the problem from a normal browser point of view, I still have some troubles with avoiding the same error messages while editing my php staff, that means the development environment which I use (Eclipse + some plugins) can't handle the include/require directives correctly. Perhaps you may face the same issue .. ?? Allex Pablo S. Torralba wrote: Hi, I have a weird problem which must be stupid for sure. I'm trying to do an include in my code run as a cgi. The include works fine in the form: include (directory/file); even it works as: include (directory/../directory/file); but it doesn't work as: include (./directory/file); nor include (../current/directory/file). Of course, the obvious thinking is I have a perms problem but they are the same for '.' and for 'directory' so it makes no sense for me (755 if you wonder). If I execute the script it works without problem but it doesn't upon web request reporting: Warning: main(./db/db.tables.php) [function.main]: failed to create stream: No such file or directory in /home/psanchez/tests/hola.php on line 8 Warning: main() [function.main]: Failed opening './db/db.tables.php' for inclusion (include_path='.') in /home/psanchez/tests/hola.php on line 8 I need to know what the problem is because I have a software that should work but it doesn't.

RE: [PHP] include problem -- how to use an external 'template' file and still use PHP variables?
I have a similar question/problem. However, I want to use an external email template as it were, so that the sales guys can edit it as they like and simply shuffle the three variables around that they need $username, $password, $code (either with or without the ?php ? tags). I don't want them mucking around in my code and potentially screwing it up. Not to mention having a huge 'email' text in between those HTMLMESSAGE markers is ugly as hell and ends up making the color-coding in HomeSite all kinds of whack at the end of it. I tried to use: $message = HTMLMESSAGE include(/pathto/customer_email.php); HTMLMESSAGE; But $message has the literal string instead of including the file. Grr.. (wouldn't it make sence that an include() should be parsed FIRST with the contents put in place basically? This seems like a 'bug' not a feature. I also tried: $filename = /pathto/customer_email.php; $fd = fopen ($filename, r); $message = fread ($fd, filesize ($filename)); fclose ($fd); But all the $username, etc. are treated as literals and if I use ?=$username? in the customer_email.php the field is blank (like it's being parsed but doesn't have a value for it or something), instead of being converted to their actual PHP values. I also tried to put the global keyword in the customer_email.php file at the top. Is there no way to accomplish this? -Original Message- From: Rasmus Lerdorf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Use a here-doc: echo EOB br[$data] br $titulo br($user)br $intro br $texto brbr (comentarios=$contador)brbrhr size=1 width=90%br EOB; -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Hi,
i am trying to make my work a little easier when editing the appearance of
a news site i am building. As it is, everytime i want to change the looks
of how each news appears, i have to edit inside the print(' '); which is
annoying, because of the backslash with problem thing(when i need to have
a inside a print, i need to put a \, you know), for example:
i have:
print(br[$data] br $titulo br($user)br $intro br $texto
brbr (comentarios=$contador)brbrhr size=1 width=90%br);
Cant i do something like having the code inside the print on an external
file? so when i want to change something, i only edit that file, instead of
dealing with the print itself, like this:
[some command(s) that put the content of the external file looks.inc in
variable $a]
print ($a);
I dont even know what to look for in the net. This problem is so i, later
on, can code some sort of backend in the ways of greymatter, that people
can change the looks of the news entries by themselves.
Thanks.

RE: [PHP] include() problem...
If you put the file into the include directory specified in the php.ini (.:/usr/lib/php) then I believe you should do: include(mysql.php); NOT include(DB/mysql.php); Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. I've got a very odd problem. I'm trying to include 'DB/mysql.php', from the /usr/lib/php directory, and it's not working. My include_path is set properly (.:/usr/lib/php) and when I do 'print_r(ini_get(include_path));' it prints it properly. But when I try and do an include, I get the following error.
