Check source before requiring PHP file

[sosothirsty]

How can I check what page is calling require_once('mypage.php')? I don't want to break up some pages into separate files but don't want these files to be called somehow on their own.

I think you should read some more on the page and you'll probably find your answer.

The part you were supposed to read is:

You can use the following in files that you want to include, but not run directly. The script will exit if it's run as the top-level script, but will not exit if it's included from another script. Of course this won't work in the command line mode.

if (realpath(__FILE__) == realpath($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'])) {
  exit;
}

I might enhance that by using header() to send a 404 before the exit.
