Include A File That Is Online - Not Local
Someone asked me to include one of their php files in my code that is hosted on their server. I have done this like so: include("http://www.somesite.com/level2/includes.php"); $info = return_user_info($_COOKIE["provident_email"]); echo $info['Last Name']; But i get this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function return_user_info() Is this even possible? Or do i need to store that include.php file locally?

Reference A File On My Local Hard Drive As A Include?
I know this is probably a very dumb question with a very easy answer (and yes, I did Google it - it's probably just so self explanitory that no one's ever had the occasion to ask before. Can I reference a file on my local hard drive as a PHP "include?" I realize that simply by virtue of the fact that PHP is a server-side languge, the answer is probably "no," but I like to be told "no" rather than just assume it. The guts of the file I'm working on live on my local machine, and I just need to get it through the PHP script on the server... Rather that go through the extra step of uploading the file to the server and then running it through the PHP script, I just thought it would be nice if I could cut out that middle step.

Passing Form Data To An Email Address/Excel Sheet On A Local Computer
I am right now learning PHP & want to know if there is a way to send web form data to an Excel sheet located on a network. My windows xp PC doesnot have a copy of Excel. Also i am not connected to the internet, its a local computer. What i am trying to do is to make a PHP script which will send a simple form data to an excel sheet (or create a new Excel sheet) on another PC on a network. Since i am not connected to the internet, i will not be able to send an email (anyway, sendmail is not available on Windows OS), nor do i have any server on windows. Is it possible to send form data to Excel sheet on local computer? Even my PC is a local PC. Some one was saying its possible thru Windows Scheduler.

Why Does Include File Text Need To Be Bracketed By <?php> ... <?>
Since the include function is called from within a PHP script, why does the included file have to identify itself as a PHP again by enclosing its code in <?php... <?> One would assume that the PHP interpreter works like any other, that is, it first expands all the include files, and then parses the resulting text. Can anyone help with an explanation?

Passing Variables From A Text File Via Include()
what I'm trying to do is to make a sort of news posting script for a website that I've been working on. I am getting the text for the news from a form that the user fills out. The form has several different fields. For the sake of discussion, I'll refer to the values of these fields as $title $shortStory $longStory The values are then passed to a php file called write.php that will write the values to a file called news.htm, where the users will then be able to read the news. In order to make news.htm match the rest of the website, I've created a file called newsproperties.txt. This file holds 4 variables. It looks a little something like this. PHP Code:

Error Says Can't See Include File, Yet Executes Some Code On Include File
I am using an include_once() command to include a file that sits a level above the file view.php. when the code is run, I have an error as follows: Warning: include_once(../common.php) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:Program Files.. view.php on line 2 Warning: include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening '../ common.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;C:Program Filesxamppphp pear') in C:Program Files...view.php on line 2 The include command is simply: include_once(../common.php) - the '../' before the 'common.php' to indicate a level above the current file level. Is this right? I could not find a resource to confirm this. The strange thing is that while the error seems to imply that the calling file, view.php cannot 'see' the common.php file, other functions called from the 'common.php' file executes correctly and on the same calling file/page (view.php). Appears to the a double take - quite confusing -

Include Text Files For Text Content?
Is it pretty standard procedure to use .txt files to store textual content on a big site? I have the content set up in the database right now, but management is a headache at best and I want a system whereby I can easily edit the content from a text editor or from a browser interface. I can see the text file solution filling both of these needs, not to mention that in my preliminary testing it was almost twice as fast as calling from the database (even with good indexes). I just don't want to redesign my whole system only to find out that someone already tried it this way and it didn't work. I also have a search page to worry about, for which I was planning on simply iterating through the files and checking each as I would a database entry. The search page is almost negligible, though. Not only does it not get much traffic, but we're mainly a catalog site, so anyone searching the site would likely be searching products anyway.

Posting Local File Info To A Php File!
I have a script that I run locally and im trying to get the info to post to a php file so that I can view it in a browser. What I need to know is how to set up the receiving php to post it to the .html . Now I thought it went along the line of creating the php file and putting it on the root of the server then running the local script against a that php info file and it would dump the info to a browser but it wont work like that (I'm guessing cause it's a local script and not on the web) I know this line is sending it to the .php in that directory but I don't know how to set up the receiving php I guess is my problem. gosub phpsend www.xxxxxxxxxxxxx.com /xxxxx/xxxxxxxxx.php %sendstring I guess what I need to know is whats the best way to post the received data to a browser after the script runs. Or to set up the receiving php file as for outputting it I can create the page I just need to know how to receive it .

How To Process A Local File Rather Than Just Read It
I can read a local file with fopen("myFile.php"); However this gives me the source of the file (i.e. php code). I want to get the results of the file after it has been evaluated (i.e. HTML). The obvious way of doing this is include 'myfile.php' However, I want to process the evaluated result. For example: echo htmlentities( include 'myfile.php' ); This doesn't work because the result of the include statement is true or false rather than a string. I'm sure this is very simple, but I'm just learning.
