Actually this does work:
//First_File.php
<?
$test = "I am the test variable";
?>
//Second_File.php
<?
echo $test;
?>
//Active file
<?
require "First_File.php";
require "Second_File.php";
?>
That would produce the output of :
I am the test variable
An include or require just places the files' contents at the line you
include it. So after the includes(requires) my parsed code was:
<?
$test = "I am the test variable";
echo $test;
?>
Hope this helps
