[thelist] RE: PHP Problem

[Jeremy Ashcraft]

A nice feature of the include function is that it can grab URLs as well.  I
had a similar problem with including a perl script from within a PHP.  Just
pass the entire URL to the include function and it will make a normal
request to the webserver:

include("http://www.yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/script.pl");

should do the trick.  HTH
