PHP question, using a function inside an include?

[chadglni]

Can anyone tell me real quick how to make a function work within an include?

Include is formatted like:

<? include 'http://www.site.com/folder/file.php?FILE=http://www.site2.com/folder/REPLACE.php&TEMPLATE=template.html'; ?>

Need to add a ($function) where it says REPLACE which of course currently spells out the funtion instead of inserting the correct data. Easy way to stop this?

use double quotes instead:
<? include("http://www.site.com/folder/file.php?FILE=http://www.site2.com/folder/$function.php&TEMPLATE=template.html"); ?>

By the way, whatever you trying to do, it doesn't look like the best way of doing things...

How about?

<?

1.) function here
2.) store end result in variable
3.) include variable

?>

Thanks, and yeah it's horrible. It needs to be custom coded but I'm rigging up a demo for an investor before we do a custom job.
