PHP Webpage HELP!

[SRAdmin]

I used to use this script back on an older PHP, but it doesn't work now:


<? include("$showme" . ".info"); ?>

http://www.example.com/view.php?showme=test

This would result in $showme = test.info




Well, it doesn't work any more on Fedora Core 3, PHP4?

Any ideas how I can read this in differently? I really don't want to lose my old navigation method.

Can you access the file if you try to read it using PHP?

No. It wont attempt to. It doesn't populate showme. So if i just output the contents of showme to text it doesn't know what it is. It's like it doesnt even attempt to read it.

try $_GET['showme'] instead of $showme
