Hi there!, When you include information from an include file, PHP treats the text as inline code if you use the include() function.
In other words, if you use code like this: <?php include 'file.php'; ?> Then any functions inside file.php will be available just as if you'd copy/pasted them in. If file.php contained: function echoThis($this_text){ echo($this_text); } then you could type <?php include 'file.php'; echoThis("I am some text"); ?> and whatever echoThis() is coded to do will happen just as if the file looked like this: <?php function echoThis($this_text){ echo($this_text); } echoThis("I am some text"); ?> For more information, see http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php HTH, Dw Sqlcoders.com Dynamic data driven web solutions ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rodrigo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Php Lista'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: May 21 2002 08:48 PM Subject: [PHP] Function Hi guys I'm trying to use a function on na .inc file, how should I do? How should I write the function and what should I write on the file so that the function file is "Included" to be used on a function call on the php file? I appreciate any kind of sample code.
