Hi,
Yes, you can include a fixed external file which declares and defines
all global variables to be used. For example you can create a file
(config.php)
define some variables here ($globTheme = 'classic').
In all other files just include this file as first statement.
Afterwards it will be available to the main file and all other
included files. But remember that whenever you change the value of a
variable, old value will get lost (depends on the scope of variable).
regards,
rahul
