Is there a way to embed code into $message?

Lauj

I'm trying to send an email using PHP. Below is my code:

$Email = fromEmail@myDomain.com;
$To = "myEmail@myDomain.com";
$message = '
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
This is only a test.
</body>
</html>'
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$headers .= "From: '".$Email."'\r\n";
$subject = "It doesn't work";
mail($To, $subject, $message, $headers);

And the above code will work. Now here's what I want. I want to somehow embed the code:

<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
This is only a test.
</body>
</html>

into a .inc file or some other compatible file so I can do something like this:

$message = require("bodyText.inc");

if it is possible. Is there a way to embed into the $message so I don't have show all the html code?

$message = file_get_contents('bodyText.inc');

Many thanks for your help but I got this error Fatal error: Call to undefined function: file_get_contents(). What is this mean?

it means you are using an older version of PHP (< 4.3.0). either upgrade (if you can) or use this code:

$filename = '/path/to/bodyText.in';
$handle = fopen($filename, 'r');
$message = fread($handle, filesize($filename));
fclose($handle);
