Functions and Includes

[markster]

Is it possible to run a function at was declared in an include?

The function called scanMsg is declared in one file, and this file is included from another one. One of the function parameters is given from MySQL, is this code I'm using here OK?

PHP Code:

<?php
include("http://www.##########################-msg.php"); // Function declared in here
$tid = mysql_result(mysql_query("SELECT tid FROM table WHERE id = $uid LIMIT 1;"),0,0);
scanMsg($msg,$tid,"Sky High Chat");
?>

The variable $uid is declared earier in the file.

Whats wrong with this?

http://www.##########################

That's what's wrong with it.
PHP: include - Manual

I blanked out the URL myself to stop people going there. I've had a look round the manual and I couldn't find anything to help.

When you include it via the url, you are evaluating the results of that page not the code on the page. If you want to include the php code, you need to include the file as the server would see it.

You probably forgot to read the red bordered, definatly can't miss, Security warning and the normal Warning.
