Including filenames w/ parameters

[Anon]

Hi!

I have a simple problem - it would have to be simple, since I don't understand half of what you guys discuss here...

Why doesn't this work, even though "/poems/contents.php?fi" works fine?

php include("$DOCUMENT_ROOT/poems/contents.php?fi");

Thanks.

quite simple indeed. You are making a very common mistake about include.
