Include and require functions  By Force

This tutorial will teach you how to use the include and require functions in PHP. What are these? include is probably one of the most used functions in PHP, require is the same thing but except of making a bunch of errors on your webpage if the page does not exist it will trigger that "FATAL ERROR" and will completely stop your page from loading(this is more secure because other people might be able to get a small gleam at your source code). What You Need 1. A text editor, yes it can be Notepad if you wish. 2. A page to include/require(I will be using my config.php page from another tutorial). 3. A page to include/require the page on (I'm making a page called index.php to use).    Hits:90    Rate:  0.0(out of 5)    Vote:0   Submit Date :2007-06-06   Rate It   |  Error   |  Review

Creating and Calling a function  By Force
First of all, a function is basically a "shortcut" in coding. For example, If you wanted to display your sidebar in severa pages but did not want to copy the code over an over you could make a function to display it. Than you would just need one line of simple code and your sidebar is there!!    Hits:91    Rate:  0.0(out of 5)    Vote:0   Submit Date :2007-06-06   Rate It   |  Error   |  Review
