PHP include() with GET attributes (include file.php?q=1)

You don't want to do this: You'd have to do a http request to be able to pass GET parameters. A PHP script you call in this way will run in a separate PHP process.

The optimal way is to include the file locally:

include('search.php');

and to pass any parameters to it manually, like e.g.

$q = "1";
include('search.php');  // expects `$q` parameter

or, more cleanly, putting whatever you have in search.php into a function or class that you can call with a parameter:

include('search.php');  // defines function my_search($q)  
my_search(1);       

The easy solution is to set your GET value before you include the file.

$_GET['q'] = 1;
include('search.php);

Try rewrite $_GET variable.

$oldget=$_GET;
$_GET=array('q'=>'1');
include('search.php');
$_GET=$oldget;

In effect, writing into the $_GET array is a bit dirty and not necessary. You could simply set a variable in your page before the include statement:

$q=1;
include("search.php");

this way, the $q variable will be visible in your included page and can (obviously) be set differently in any including page.

It works fine!! Thank you

Set the var before the "include" statement

$q=1;
include("search.php");

maybe an other option, although it comes with its own limitations, using AJAX-injection into a div.. most simple way to to this is with jQuery:

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.0/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script>$('#box').load('search.php?q=1');</script>

<div ID="box"></div>

If like me you needed this to be permanently in the 'include' link it can be done with jQuery.

The solution I used recently was as follows:

First, declare the location of the div to be populated by the included file:

<div id="imgdiv"> </div>

Then add a jQuery call to populate it, but insert your GET variables with PHP:

<script>                
window.onload = function(){     
        $("#imgdiv").load('php/show-img.php?id=<?php echo $i; ?>&name=<?php echo $name; ?>');           
}
</script>

Hopefully that will be sufficient to get it working, assuming a java enabled browser is used of course.
