The simplest way to do this is like this

index.php

<?php $active = 'home'; include 'second.php'; ?>

second.php

<?php echo $active; ?>

You can share variables since you are including 2 files by using "include"

Imagine the include as what it is  A copy  amp  paste of the contents of the included PHP file which will then be interpreted  There is no scope change at all  so you can still access  someVar in the included file directly  even though you might consider a class based structure where you pass  someVar as a parameter or refer to a few global variables

In the file you include  wrap the html in a function    lt  php function  myVar     gt       lt div gt           lt  php echo  myVar    gt       lt  div gt   lt  php     gt    In the file where you want it to be included  include the file and then call the function with the parameters you want

You could do something like this to achieve the effect you are after     GET  id    somevar  include  myFile php      However  it sounds like you are using this include like some kind of function call  you mention calling it repeatedly with different arguments    In this case  why not turn it into a regular function  included once and called multiple times

You can use  GLOBALS to solve this issue as well    myvar    Hey    include   test php      echo  GLOBALS  myvar

An include is just like a code insertion  You get in your included code the exact same variables you have in your base code  So you can do this in your main file     lt       if   condition    true                 id   12345          include  myFile php           gt    And in  myFile php      lt       echo  My id is        id          gt    This will output       My id is 12345

I know this has been a while  however  Iam wondering whether the best way to handle this would be to utilize the be session variable s   In your myFile php you d have   lt  php    MySomeVAR     SESSION  SomeVar       gt     And in the calling file    lt  php  session start       SESSION  SomeVar      SomeVAR  include  myFile php    echo  MySomeVAR     gt     Would this circumvent the  suggested  need to Functionize the whole process

If anyone else is on this question  when using include  somepath php    and that file contains a function  the var must be declared there as well  The inclusion of  var  var  won t always work  Try running these   one php     lt  php      vars   array  stack   exchange    com         include  two php      -----  paste  contents of two php         testFunction      ----- execute imported function      gt    two php    lt  php     function testFunction             global  vars    ----- vars declared inside func             echo  vars 0   vars 1   vars 2           gt

Your question is not very clear  but if you want to include the php file  add the source of that page to yours   you just have to do following    if condition        someVar someValue      include  myFile php       As long as the variable is named  someVar in the myFile php

I have ran into this when doing ajax forms where I include multiple field sets   Taking for example an employment application   I start out with one professional reference set and I have a button that says  Add More    This does an ajax call with a  count parameter to include the input set again  name  contact  phone   etc   This works fine on first page call as I do something like    lt  php  include  references php       gt    User presses a button that makes an ajax call ajax  references php count 1     Then inside the references php file I have something like    lt  php  count   isset   GET  count        GET  count     0    gt    I also have other dynamic includes like this throughout the site that pass parameters   The problem happens when the user presses submit and there is a form error   So now to not duplicate code to include those extra field sets that where dynamically included  i created a function that will setup the include with the appropriate GET params    lt  php  function include get params  file       parts   explode       file     if  isset  parts 1          parse str  parts 1    output       foreach   output as  key   gt   value            GET  key     value              include  parts 0        gt    The function checks for query params  and automatically adds them to the   GET variable   This has worked pretty good for my use cases   Here is an example on the form page when called    lt  php    We check for a total of 12 for   i 0   i lt 12   i        if  isset   POST  references name    i    amp  amp   empty   POST  references name    i         include get params DIR   references php count     i      else      break         gt    Just another example of including GET params dynamically to accommodate certain use cases   Hope this helps   Please note this code isn t in its complete state but this should be enough to get anyone started pretty good for their use case

If you are going to write this include manually in the PHP file - the answer of Daff is perfect   Anyway  if you need to do what was the initial question  here is a small simple function to achieve that    lt  php    Include php file from string with GET parameters function include get  phpinclude           find   if available      pos incl   strpos  phpinclude            if   pos incl     FALSE                   divide the string in two part  before   and after            after   - the query string          qry string   substr  phpinclude   pos incl 1              before   - the real name of the file to be included          phpinclude   substr  phpinclude  0   pos incl              transform to array with  amp  as divisor          arr qstr   explode   amp    qry string              in  arr qstr you should have a result like this                 id 123    active no                foreach   arr qstr as  param value                   for each element in above array  split to variable name and its value             list  qstr name   qstr value    explode       param value                   qstr name will hold the name of the variable we need -  id    active                       qstr value - the corresponding value                  qstr name - this construction creates variable variable                this means from variable  qstr name    id   adding another   sign in front you will receive variable  id                the second iteration will give you variable  active and so on               qstr name    qstr value                         now it s time to include the real php file        all necessary variables are already defined and will be in the same scope of included file     include  phpinclude           I m using this variable variable construction very often
