If I put an echo into my included file, the echo displays on the screen.
But no results are returned.
However, if I copy the data from my include file and paste it directly
into my page, I get the results.
Ok, so that's confirmed that the include file is being included
properly. I think we need to see the code you're using to get the data

Try outputting something in the include file. If that gets displayed
then the problem is most likely that the code you have to get the
