same variables used in 2 included files

[Sarah Atkinson]

I have 2 seperete files I am including into a script. They uses the same verriables however I want one to execute and then the other. will this be a problem?

Depends if

- the second script properly initialises all of the variables it uses.
- you need to retain any variable values that the first script sets later in your code

If the answers are yes and no respectively there should be no problems.

You might be able to unset the variables in the first file after they have been used and then assign new values in the second include file. This would prevent any mix up with the two files.
