Variable in include() URL

[Petsmacker]

Very simple question with what I hope will be a simple answer. Here's what I want to do simplified:

 

<?php
$x_id=4;
include (mypage.php?var=$x_id);
?>

 

Is this possible? I need the x_id variable to be dynamic depending on circumstances. Cheers!

when you phase them through your script... im assuming your using a url to phase them or a form element..

 

Your Code:

<?php
$x_id=4;
include (mypage.php?var=$x_id);
?>

 

Try (With Form Elements):

<?php
$x_id=$_POST['form_element_name'];
include (mypage.php?var=$x_id);
?>

 

With URL's

<?php
$x_id=$_GET['variable_name'];
include (mypage.php?var=$x_id);
?>

Sorry, I should elaborate. The problem is putting a variable inside an include function, not generating the variable itself. Everytime I try, the include file doesn't show.

I'm guessing

 

<?php
$id = 4;
include( 'file.php?' . $id );
?>

 

...should work.

GET parameters on the end of the URL in a local/file system include() don't work. No guessing is needed, its in the php manual.

Well I haven't read the entire PHP Manual, so I wouldn't know... though now I do.
