Re: [PHP] Re: Include Question

[Kevin Stone]

Guys I would say looping include()'s is just a bad idea all together.  It
can get you into some gritty situations.  For example it would be very easy
to end in an infinte loop, or overwrite variables, or just confuse the heck
out of the PHP parser.  I recommend you do a header() redirect rather than
include() at the end of the script.  Just my opinion.

 You could try this instead:

  Checklogin.php

  if (!$name || !password) {
 $message = $enter_info;
  }

  if ($message){
 include (login.php);
 echo $message;
 exit;
  }

 But the way you had it should work, you might just need to
 global $message;
 right before the echo in login.php in case it is inside a function

 Subject: Include Question


  Hi,
 
  First, I fixed my other problem of the stack overflow by moving the
files
  back to the root directory (although I would rather have them in a login
  directory). Anyway, I have a question regarding the include function. I
 have
  a login script in a file called login.php - in this file it includes
  checklogin.php and loginerrors.php. If the user inputs an incorrect
login
 I
  assign $messages the appropriate error from loginerrors, then I
re-include
  login.php where I want to show the error message, but no matter what I
do
  the error message will not show up.
 
  Example.
 
  Login.php 
 
  Enter your Name:
  Enter Your Password:
  if ($message) { echo $message; }
 
  Checklogin.php
 
  if (!$name || !password) {
  $message = $enter_info;
  include (login.php);
  exit;
  }
 
  Any help is appreciated.

Re: [PHP] Re: include question

[Jason Bell]

include loads the entire file. I do something similar with my functions
(Keep them in a seperate file, and include them when needed) I will usually
have multiple function files, grouped by function...

for example, I have one file for error reporting functions, one file for
authentication functions, one file for database manipulation functions, etc
etc  then, I just include whatever file holds the needed function where
it is needed. My reason for doing this is to keep everything modular. (I
have multiple domains, and like to reuse my code.. it's easier to have files
for specific function sets, than to maintain a single large file)

BUT, keep in mind: The server loads the entire file into memory, which is
done extremely fast, and the processes it based on your control structures,
etc... The user will only download the output that is sent, not the entire
contents of your include file. The user shouldn't notice any slowdown caused
by your include.

 I'm afraid you have not understood me completely:
 My only concern on this topic is: Will the user be forced to wait for the
whole included php file to load, or the server
 will just take the desired function from that file? My goal here is to
call different fragments of html code depending
 on user selection by using functions that have the echo command. I am only
afraid of all functions from included file
 beeing loaded, and not only the called one. Is this the right way to
approach this problem, or you would suggest smth
 else?

 Thanks
 Nikola

 include() has two different workings depnding on how it is called.
 
 include('include/test.php');
 php will open the file and litterally take everything in that and paste
into
 where the include() is, just like when you open the file in an editor,
the
 file is un-parsed raw src. functions, comments, whitespaces, html, etc,
etc,
 etc.
 
 include('http://www.e-tankless.com/products.php');
 php will make a http request to that file, just like if you typed it into
 your browser, ie the remote server will parse the file and only send you
the
 parsed data, not the source code, obviously though, how could you get
 someone elses code right?
