"include" problems

Recommended Posts

I have a file called "inc_records.php" which outputs data from a mysql query.  It has the following code in it. 

 

$content = "<p>" . $record_array['first_name'] . "</p>";
$content .= "<p>" . $record_array['last_name . "</p>";

 

I am going to use this code everytime I need to display that data.  I want to save the $content variable as another variable.  For example. 

 

$_SESSION['content'] = include("includes/inc_records.php");

 

However this isn't working so what is the best way to do it?  Thanks for any help.

Why not just set the include to assign the data to $_SESSION['content'] instead and remove the middle man?

 

At anyrate, that is not how you use includes, includes execute the code. So you would need to do:

 

include('includes/inc_records.php');
$_SESSION['content'] = $content;
