Setting a variable to the contents of an included file.

[webdes03]

I want to set a variable to equal the contents of an included file. Every time I try, it includes the file wherever I try to set the variable to it. Below is the code I'm using. Instead of making $content equal the contents of home.php, it includes home.php there. It must be simple and I'm just doing something wrong. Any ideas?

$content = include('home.php');

Nevermind, I got it. For anyone who cares...

$content = file_get_contents($p.'.php');
