Mailing List Archive: Enable inc files

'inc' files are usually just php files that are 'pulled in' using the php 'include([file])' function. I've seen 'inc' files done in two ways -

1. instead of 'myinclude.inc', use 'myinclude.inc.php' - this will use the default php extention, and will therefore let the server know it should be parsed by the php interpreter.

- or -

2. If every 'inc' file you intend to use is for php only, you could consider adding as an extention for php in your conf/httpd.conf -

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .inc

You may also need to edit your php.ini to tell the php parser where include files are located:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Paths and Directories ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

; UNIX: "/path1:/path2"
;include_path = ".:/php/includes"
;
; Windows: "\path1;\path2"
include_path = ".;C:\php-4.1.1\pear;C:\php-4.1.1\includes"

If you want php to look for include files in the same directory as the calling php file, make sure the '.' is listed (usually is by default).

I hope this helps.
