When you click on the require() link abovem it is including the " for some reason, just remove it from your address bar and hit enter, the file is there. It will show up as blank page because its a library file. No output.

localhost is a Windows XP Home machine, running php 4.3.1 and Apache 2. The localhost file test.php requires the files needed from http://www.donelson.net/InetX/ and works great. The below URL is in the address bar from the Zend Debugger.

http://localhost/InetX/test.php?start_debug=1&debug_stop=1&debug_port=10000&debug_no_cache=1053993574959

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

Thanks sniper, I went there and download/installed 4.3.3-dev. I get the samething on localhost, dont know on remote host. They only run the latest released stable versions :(

Everything is same as it was before. Any more ideas for me? I got an entire library that I am trying to get out but this needs to be fixed first.

We need a short, self contained reproducing script.

Here is the scripts you requested. I had done as you asked and looked into reporting a bug
and here is the end result. This order.php reproduces the error perfectly. order.php is supposed to include McDonalds.php so it knows how to place and receive and order.



<?PHP /* save anywhere as order.php */

This isn't a bug, but user error.  When includeing a file via URL, php will make a request the server just as a browser would.  Therefore, PHP will not have access to the acutual PHP code, but only what it outputs.  Inorder to make this work, either name your file something else so that the webserver doesn't parse it (.inc for example) or use local filesystem paths to include files and not URLs.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
