Hi all I'm trying to set html text ina a $var and I can olny get the $vars to print if they are alone... If I tyr to add an array or make them uc I get errors...

Anyone know what I need to add to this code?

$htmltext = "<html>

<title>ucwords($pagetitle)</title>
</head>
<body>$content</body>
</html>";

That works!

How about is I add a chunk of code or a file?

$htmltext = "hello ".include("file.php")." \n Bye, Bye."

That piece fails....

$htmltext = "hello ".file_get_contents('file.txt')." - and bye."; ;)

".file_get_contents('file.txt')." includes the file but it doesn't excute the code before outputting. Is there a way to have it run the code in the include file?

include("file.php");
$htmltext = "hello ".$var." \n Bye, Bye." ;

inside file.php you define $var
