PHP includes & variables

Expand Post »

I don't have much time to say this but I'm going to try and hurry...

Here's a snippet of code:

Quote ...

$subName = "someName";

include "contentHeader.php";

Inside of contentHeader:

Quote ...

echo $subName;

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

I know that this variable is correct because I had tried to use it on the original page that has the include file and it works. However when I try to echo it using the include page, it does not work. I can't explain in great detail right now but all I know is I need to get that variable from the original page and allow it to echo in contentHeader. What could I be doing wrong?

Thanks!! Sorry for the rush, hope you can answer

Re: PHP includes & variables

That looks like that should work. Is an error message being displayed? Maybe set error reporting to report all errors. If there is a minor issue that may report it to you.
