Include(Otherfile.php#anchor)

[Johnny2]

I'm trying to include a file, but want to show the file at a specific location. I figured I'd just use a named anchor in my include, but it doesn't seem to work. Is there a way to do this?... or am I once again trying to do something impossible? I know I can probably use a regular link to go to that specific location on the page, but in my situation I need to "include" the other file (so that my variables will still be defined).

 

include(otherFile.php#anchor);

 

 

Thanks!

Unfortunately that isn't the way that includes work.

 

I'm not quite sure what you have in mind... you might look into AJAX instead, where you use Javascript to insert content from a file into a page (for example: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.get/) or using a session and session variables to keep certain variables defined while switching pages.
