included file var scope

[Evert Lammerts <evert.lammerts@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

My system is accessible through an index.php file. This file does a 
bunch of includes to include global variables, which in function context 
become available through the global keyword:

index.php

<?php
require_once "global_vars.php";

function f() {
   global $global_var;
   var_dump($global_var);
}

f();

?>

However, apart from access through the index.php file I want to be able 
to include my index.php file from a function context:

<?php

   function includeIndex() {
      require_once ("index.php");
   }

?>

The logical result is that variables that are globally accessible to 
functions when the system is accessed through index.php are now in the 
context of includeIndex() - so they're not global.

I want to fix this problem by not having the include inside of the 
function context. How to go upon this?

Evert
