Embed PHP Help

I am having a problem calling up a *.php file in side another *.php file

My server runs PHP 4

I can run the cal.php by calling it by it self (see link below)

http://www.vfdbl.com/forum/cal.php

When I try to include the cal.php in another page I get a bunch of errors. I
created a simple *.php file to call the cal.php in see link below
The cal.php file works just fine - see below

http://www.vfdbl.com/forum/cal.php

When I try and call the cal.php file up inside of the calendar.php file I
get all kinks of problems - can some one tell my why this is ?

http://www.vfdbl.com/calendar.php

thanks

Below is the script for the calendar.php which <includes> the cal.php file



<?php ?>
<meta http-equiv=&quot;Content-Language&quot; content=&quot;en-us&quot;>
<table border=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; style=&quot;border-collapse:
collapse&quot; bordercolor=&quot;#111111&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; id=&quot;AutoNumber1&quot;>
<tr>
<td>
<?php include (&quot;

http://www.vfdbl.com/forum/cal.php&quot;);

?>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</table>

what's the error you're getting?

if it says something like (cannot send headers), that's a session error. to get around it, add ob_start(); to the top of the page giving you problems. Otherwise, post the error and we'll see what we can do. leo

Try this instead - you dont wanna &quot;include&quot; or &quot;require&quot; files with absolute URLs, use the relative path. Also, you dont want the double semi-colon.

<?php include ('/forum/cal.php'); ?>

  or

<?php include ('forum/cal.php'); ?>

Good luck!

----------------------

BTW, you always wanna use single quotes (unless you are inserting a variable) - it's faster, because PHP doesn't have to scan through your string to see if there are an vars to evaluate and replace.

Example:

 <?php include (&quot;forum/cal.php&quot;); ?>

is slower than

 <?php include ('forum/cal.php'); ?>

Bacuse it searches for variables in the first. -gerrygerry
