Re: cannot access inc files from a function

Hallo Bettina,

What is the exact name of the file you are trying to include. Your construct
is very weird, if the file is "lang.EN.inc.php" for example, try:

require("lang.$lang.inc.php");

Also, could you post the code of that included file so we can see if the
values are really there.

Hope this helps,
