include() function with variables

spoons84

Im trying to split up my functions a bit, so that all my php files arent huge. But having trouble getting them to call each other.

I have a file called pic.php, which has a function picture with arguements, $homepage, $search & $input

I cant seem to get another file to call the function, atm im using:

$homepage = 'http://www.nokia.com';
$search = 'http://www.nokia.com/search/index.jsp?qt=3220';
$input = '3220';

include('pic.php');

picture($homepage, $search, $input);

But this shows a blank page, with an error in the source code:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function picture() in C:\apachefriends\xampp\htdocs\project\dbimage.php on line 26

Btw line 26 corresponds to the picture(...) line

The whole thing is a bit long, but i'll try and give the gist of it:

function picture($homepage, $search, $input) {

	global $price;
	global $showImage;
	global $description;
	global $firstLetter;
	global $trail;
$fp = fopen($search, 'r');
	if(!$fp) {
	    echo "Unable to open\n";
	} else {
		while(!feof($fp)) {
			$body = $body . fread($fp, 1024);
		}
	}

if ($body)
	{

...........find image and text from within a webpage..........

		$startTag = '<';
		$showImage = $startTag.$imgString;
		echo $showImage;
	}
	echo $price;
	echo $firstLetter.$description.$trail;
}

}

your pic.php file should start with <?php and end with ?>
if 1 is already true, try using require instead of include
