Passing parameter while including PHP script

Question

I want to do this, but it gives error :( for better understanding my problem I'm giving an example:

<?php
include 'script.php?text=hiii';
?>

content of the script.php

<?php
echo $_GET['text'];
?>

So, how can i pass an argument while including the script page?

Answer 1

You could set $_GET['text'] before including the file:

$_GET['text'] = 'hiii';
include 'script.php';

But this obviously won’t affect other variables like $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] etc.

Answer 2

After you include any script, the included script will act as it's in the same page.

For yourpage.php?text=hiii, that include('script.php') will automatically print hiii, as content of script.php will be in your included page.
