Thanks Joseph for the reply.
Are you saying that I should do the following:
$thing = include $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].
'/if folder/if folder/filename.php';
Thanks again,

Will,
I'm not clever, certainly not guru, but this is the format I've been
instructed
include $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].
'/if folder/if folder/filename.php';
And isn't include(); better than include'';?
Is that of use?
