Is there a way (without getting all complicated and using classes, ill explain at the bottom) to GET a variable from one PHP file without loading up that PHP File?? What I am trying to do is this: Create a fileversion.php file that when loaded or accessed will get $fileversion from each and ever php file in my script. The variable will already be set to a value in the page. My only other opinion I can come up with is to create a table in my MySQL DB with a list of all the files and their versions... AS FOR CLASSES, I plan to include something in my script that has turned out to be VERY VERY complicated. I wanted to send text messages to users Moble Cell Phone if a reservation in my script was changed or cancelled (of course this would be a user option that they could disable) So far, I have been able to do this but phpclasses.org and if anyone is wondering, I have only been able to get 2 Moble Cell Phone providers to work as of yet (Sprint which is my phone, and Verizon but am currently working on T-Moble and Cricket Communications) When all is done with it, besides including it in my script I may put it up on planetsourcecode.com and a few others.....but I cant take all the credit as I have NO CLUE how the class works that I am using..LOL BTW, I figured out my function problem finally....sort of I ended up having to re-write the function from scratch but in the end I figured out that I had put a } in somewhere that was just messing the whole thing up. That part of the function is done and now I am working on the next two parts... ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Make a clean sweep of pop-up ads. Yahoo!
