Simple PHP problem?

you cant use
<?php include(forum/extern.php?action=stats);?>

in your own website..
the extern.php has issue...

only way i know would be to create a file on a different host and then point to that file.
http://yoursite.com/test.php

then do a include from that site.  sorta a bounce around .. that might work.....

Q

You can include it from your own domain easily, I don't know what your on about quaker

The problem is A) You need ' marks around a string, and B) You need to use the http wrapper rather than file wrapper by specifying the full path, ie:

<?php include('http://www.example.com/forum/extern.php?action=stats');?>

Alternatively if you wish to do some processing on the output rather than simply include it:

<?php

$stats = file_get_contents('http://www.example.com/forum/extern.php?action=stats');

// do something to $stats
