Include for array code

[SaranacLake]

@requinix,

In an earlier thread of mine this week, I think you - or maybe it was @Psycho - suggested putting my code which create an array of my photo files into an include file.

I think the logic was that then when either my "photo-gallery.php" OR "photo-detils.php" scripts call that code, that the array will always synched because it is the same array.

Ring a bell?

So super newbie question, but I am rusty on includes...  How does this sound...

 

1.) Create an "/includes/retrieve-photos.php" script?

 

2.) Reference that in each script, I would do this...

	require_once('../../includes/retrieve-photos.php
	

right?

 

3.) To use that code, I would then just reference the populated array...

	foreach($photoFiles as $photoKey => $photoValue){
	 
	}
	

Right?

That all sounds very consistent with the "putting code which creates the array into an include file" strategy.

Taking a stab at it now...
