Hi All, I don't know if this is the wanted situation... If you include a full URL path to a file in your own server (or specify a remote php script) that has a RETURN statment, the value is not return from this script (remotely or locally with full URL path). See example below: simples.php 's code: <? $val = "simples"; return $val; ?> ----------------------------------------------- main_1.php 's code: <? $resultado = include ("./simples.php"); print_r($resultado); ?> ----------------------------------------------- main_2.php 's code: <? $resultado = include ("http://localhost/simples.php"); print_r($resultado); ?> ----------------------------------------------- Running main_1.php (http://localhost/main_1.php) I got the following output: simples Running main_2.php (http://localhost/main_2.php) I got the following output instead of "simples" as before: 1 This is a normal situation? If yes (or also if this is a bug), what could be done to return the result of a remote script execution? There is another way to get the result of a external execution? I need this to external users be able to run SQL commands on my mysql server without pass them my server password. I pretend to use a username/password protection to do some users just access some tables... There is something like that I can use?
