floridaflatlander Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Are php user defined functions defined/redefined every time a page loads? I have a functions page and function_exist() tells me the function is redefined every time I load a page. Is this correct, is this the nature of the beast that the functions will be redefined each time the function.inc file is used? When they(books) say remember, are they taking about a page that uses the function.inc file 2,3,4 5 times?

trq Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Yes they are redefined every time the included file is include. Hence, you should be using include_once or require_once.
