wouldn't that be very dangerous if someone could grab my code and run it on
their server?
i'm an intermediate php guy at best. for many reasons i would not want
someone including my files and running them on another server!!! i hope
there's no easy way to do that!!!!!
btw if files are outside of the route directory then that means only the
local files can all them and execute them, right??
thanks
tony

Subject: Re: Include function across servers
I'm not totally clear on what you're asking, so here's two options:
If you use the include() function, you're pulling the code from the
external server and running on the local server. If you're running an HTTP
call, say via an Ajax routine for example, the code runs on the external
server.
The difference is if you're grabbing the source from the external server
and running it on the local php interpreter, or if you're using the
external php setup.
This seems to be what you're asking, the answer in this case is, either
one could happen, it depends on your implementation. If you provide
details on the exact implementation then I can give a more exact answer.

I ask this as I do not have two web sites on different servers to test at

Does it work to use an include function in the php code on one site that
calls a function on the other site? If you include a file on a remote
server that runs a function, where does the function run - on the server
where the function is originally written or on the calling server? I am
thinking that if I write code, it is one way to make the functionality
available without actually disposing of the source code itself.
So the included functions might be variable values. Eg you could pass
back a whole calendar to the calling server, which then just prints on
the calling web site just by printing the returned variable. (I know
that in terms of getting data to mark up the calendar the database would
need to be fully referenced: user, password, server, and the calling
(shared) host for instance will ask for the remote IP address to add to a
white list.)
