passing data to included file

[kumarsena]

just wondering,

is it possible to include a file using include() and at teh same time pass some variable or something to that file? say it contains a fucntion and the function needs an argument or whatever to work..? can i use scriptname.php?var=value?

You can create the variable in the current script and it will be available in the included script.

If you wrap the whole of the file you want to include into a function, you can include_once/require_once it, and then just call the function varying the parameters as necessary.
