VAR length

[zzz]

I have a page where I include a form based on different conditions. The main part of the form is the same and I thought I'm put it in a variable and just insert the var name where the form should go. The page works but with the error saying:

Warning: main(): failed to open stream: File name too long

How long can a var be?

GOT IT.

DAH! I was using include instead of ECHO...

Note that it says file name not variable name.

PHP strings definitely can handle the number of characters that you posted, and none of the PHP variable names are even remotely long.

There is some other problem, but I'm not sure what.

btw, enclosing your variable in parentheses isnt really standard practice.
Such use of parentheses is generally for conditionals where there are more than one sub-conditional to be evaluated, e.g.
($a && $b) || ($c && $d)

Yes, thanks.

Originally I was including the external file with the variable, but later desided to include it in the actual file, but forgot to change the calls from INCLUDE to ECHO.

Re: "" aroung VARS. I'm using certain class that allows me to do such calls, I think. Anyway, it works just fine.
