PHP global functions ?

#1 August 8th, 2006, 10:05 PM

Hi everyone !

I got a question about how to create a universal functions (visible to
all pages in current directory and sub directories).

I am trying to create a function that can be called on each page in
current directory and sub directories without include the file that
contains this file. Does anybody know how to do this ?

To make it more specific, Let's say I created a file "temp.php" which
contains a function "foo( )".
Now, I'd like to call foo( ) in every new web pages I create in any
subdirectory without including the file "temp.php".

I was told that .htaccess can get this job done. However, I don't know
exactly how this is done using .htaccess ?

Any help would be appreciated ?

Thanks,
Lazy Pig

Just configure it in php.ini. Set auto_append_file to wherever your
function is.

Well that might not be a good idea if you don't want the functions to
be available for all virtual hosts (or if you don't have access to the
php.ini file).

I prefer to use the .htaccess method:
php_value auto_prepend_file /full/path/to/script.php

Hi guys!

Thank you for your response. If you gonna use .htaccess to this this,
how would you go about to do that ?
I've searched many sites, but none of the sites I found has specific
information about this stuff.

Exactly how he said, create an .htaccess file containing:
php_value auto_prepend_file /full/path/to/script.php

More files/scripts are perfectly possible.

There could be a problem with permissions - make sure that the
..htaccess file is set to be executable

..htaccess is not an executable file and should *never* be set that way.
It only needs to be readable by the Apache process.
