Problem including the other php file.

[Ben Sehara]

Hi,

I want to include three php files in index.php file like the code below. But
it always shows up only two, any two of the three, any order.

<tr>
<td><?php include ("includes/documents.php"); ?>&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><?php include ("includes/locations.php"); ?>&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><?php include ("includes/status.php"); ?>&nbsp;</td>
</tr>

Hi Ben,
the include() statement works in the same way of require(), with the
difference that require() is executed the first time the statement is
parsed, while include() is evluated each time the statement is
executed.

you may wanna work in this way:

<?php

if (variable == true)
{
include('file.inc');
}
else
{
echo 'hello!';
}
?>

bye,
V.

Umm, not quite. require() and include() are identical in every way
except for how they handle failure. If the file cannot be included
for some reason, require() will cause the entire script to die while
include will just throw a warning.

If you wanted to test for error messages for debugging purposes, is there a
way to redirect required() fatal errors to error_log? Was trying to find the
best way for them to track why all three includes weren't working. Would
required() just output the fatal error to the web page?

It will be reported if you have error_reporting() turned up
sufficiently. It will be displayed in the output if you have
display_errors enabled in php.ini.

Strange... I would imagine that the order matters..

replace include with echo and see if it still has the same problem...

If not then replace your includes wiht simple files like

i.e. document.php =>
echo '1';
locations.php =>
echo '2';
....

and see if it still does the same thing. (try to narrow down the issue... if
if its what you have in your includes or if its the include statement
itself)

Its very strange that the order doesn't matter cause php starts from the top
down... the first include is included first so if it doesn't get included
some of the time then something very strange is going on or its some logical
issue in your php files.

[Ben Sehara]

I included the same and simple php file three times. It still shows the
first two. I checked the source. It is like this.

================================================== =================
<table width="760" align="center">
<tr>
<td>First Table Here</td>
</tr>
<tr>

The following is missing.

</td>

<tr>

</tr>
<tr>

</tr>
<tr>
<td width="33%"><a href="./docs/doc4.pdf">Doc4</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- end of documents.php -->
</td>
</tr>
</table>

The included file itself is showing right, but it stopped right after the
second included file. The documents.php file seems to be fine. Something
wrong with html tag? It's very simple though.

Its very important if its the "first two" or "any two". In any two that
means its random which means its much harder. If its the first two then it
means that its probably something simple. Your code is bugging out after the
second one.

second included file. The documents.php file seems to be fine. Something
wrong with html tag? It's very simple though.

Looks like your creating an error in documents.php(last few lines probably)
that is causing execution to stop. Happens all the time.

Very simple test to find problem... Remove the code that is including the
php files(just comment it out) and see if HTML is displaying properly(but
without the included stuff). If so then its your php files.

or better yet, make very simple php files like I said before that just echo
out stuff and then check the html again.

Essentially you need to add "markers" to see where the error is occuring.
You put "mile markers" in your code and you can narrow down the issue by
finding out the last message that was shown.

Sorry, I didn't mention what I have done. I removed the include file and
simple html worked fine. I replaced the include file with echo statement and
it worked fine.

Then, I replaced the echo statement with the include files, only the first
and second one worked fine.

I switched the first one with the third (not visible) one, again, the first
two files worked fine. This first one was not visible before. Any first two
include files worked fine even if you switch the files.

I tried the different include file in three places. Again, the first two
files worded fine.

Now I combined those files into one include file. It is OK for now. But if I
can find the resolution, I post it here.

Thanks for your help.

Just guessing here, could it be the case you are (re)defining functions or
classes in more than one include file? As suggested, set
error_reporting(ALL) in your script and display_errors to on (pref. in
php.ini)

Finally, Ben, please write your replies BELOW the message you are replying
to. Top-posting isn't considered good usenet practice.

Good luck,
Sh.
