[thelist] PHP include

[DAVOUD TOHIDY]

Hi There,

I have got a quick and stupid question :)

Here it is the scenario:

I have a file called file.php
I have another file called otherfile.php

Content of otherfile.php:

if (something) {
do some stuff
}

Content of file.php:

<?php 
include(otherfile.php);
else if (other thing) {
do other things
}
?>

Shouldn't the above senario work? but I do get a parse error for the ELSE if.

Thanks for your input
