Olde One Bites Off More than he Can Handle

[bobs-pcmall]

Below is a piece of code we've been trying to get to work and haven't been able to yet. Searched extensively several forums and web. G,Y,M and several others.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

PS: I added the global line in it.

<?php
global $SID,$IPAddress,$_SERVER,$UserAgent,$PageURL,$URL;
$SID="REMOVED_SITE_IDENTIFICATION";
$IPAddress = urlencode($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
$UserAgent = urlencode($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
$PageURL = urlencode($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'].'?'.$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
$URL = "<A href="http://si.REMOVED_SITE_NAME.com/GetData.aspx?SID=".$SID">http://si.REMOVED_SITE_NAME.com/GetData.aspx?SID=".$SID;
$URL = $URL.'&IPAddress='.$IPAddress;
$URL = $URL.'&UserAgent='.$UserAgent;
$URL = $URL.'&PageURL='.$PageURL;
include($URL);
?>

Try changing :

$URL = '<A href=http://si.REMOVED_SITE_NAME.com/GetData.aspx?SID='.$SID.'>http://si.REMOVED_SITE_NAME.com/GetData.aspx?SID='.$SID;

Also i don't see anywhere the definition of si.REMOVED_SITE_NAME

Also, in my knowledge, you can't include an absolute URL (http://.....)

I also don't understand how you can include a file and also link it in the same time ???

Is it possible that the post got edited? Because the <A <-- isn't in the code?

Yes, it is possible, as the forum editor automatically purses links. You need to go in Advanced, and disable the "Automatically purse links in the text" checkbox.
The difference is that i used single quotes otherwise the " inside will be intrpreted by php as php double quotes, otherwise you would need to place \ before the non php ".

Remains the other problem: you can NOT, from what i know, include an absolute URL (http://sitename.......)

The Olde One Found Answer....
Last Line is wrong...
include($URL);
should read as readFile($URL);
You were right on the money naveldesign. Many Thanks.
Even tho it was an html file also required changing the extension to php..
