impossible includes?

[grandmasterjoel]

am wanting to include an html file in page.php so i link to /page.php?gah=number

then in page.php i do this:

<?php
include '/path/to/$gah.php';
?>

this doesnt seem to work am i trying to do the impossible. there must be a way to do it.... something to do with the formatting?

any help would be greatly appreciated

n.b.

when i put:

<?php
echo $gah;
?>

it prints out the number i want.

I dont know if this works, but for one thing Im sure: you are using '/path/to/$gah.php',
shouldnt you be using "/path/to/$gah.php"? PHP doesnt parse variables inside simple quotes.

Try: include("/path/to/$gah.php");
