Includes

ryclem

I want to do an include, but from a different site (i.e. for Site 2 do something like the following:

<? include("http://www.site1.com/header.php"); ?>

It is not letting me do this... I have also tried the full path (these sites are on the same dedicated server)...

This will save me much maintenance going forward if there is a way to do this...

Any ideas...

Thanks,

Ryan

Look at using [man]fopen/man and [man]fpassthru/man. Or if you have access to the actual file just put it's full path in the [man]include/man.

The full URL doesn't work and I tried the full path and that didn't work (though I quickly tested it and didn't check my syntax)...

I will look into fopen and fpassthru though I don't know why doing the include with the full URL is an issue...is there a possible permission issue so I should chmod the files I was to access to a more accessible level?

does it give you an error, or does it simply not appear to do anything?

I get the following error message:

Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect. File is in wrong directory in /home/httpd/vhosts/sunfp-skin-cancer-photos.com/httpdocs/index.php on line 37

Warning: Failed opening '/home/httpd/vhosts/sunfriendlyproducts.com/header.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear') in /home/httpd/vhosts/sunfp-skin-cancer-photos.com/httpdocs/index.php on line 37

I have no idea where (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear') came from... what is an open_basedir restriction?

Thanks,
Ryan
