PHP functions - HELP a NEWB!

[Anon]

Hello all of you kind people,

I am new to PHP, so forgive me if this is an idiotic question, but is it possible to define a set of PHP functions in a separate file, and then call them from other files? If so, how is this done?

Thanks

Of course.

include("something.php");

Thanks sp0rk!

sp0rk is right.

But, if I may add, don't forget that if you're using that within an html document, you need to put php tags around that:

html code blah blah blah
more code blah blah blah
<?php
include("something.php");
?>
html code blah blah blah
more code blah blah blah

... because "include" is a php function. But, you probably already knew that :-)
