Question

Is it possible, to include PHP code in a separate file on another computer. If so, how?

For example:

On the first computer:

#Host 1 Script
$username = "dfgd";
$password = "sdff";

#Code I need help with

And then on the second:

#Host 2 Script

#Code which needs to be run on Host 1 which will manipulate $username and $password

Obviously, I would not be able to store the script on Host 2 in a .php file because when it is read, nothing would print out… But is it possible?

Answer 1

As long as reading files over HTTP is enabled in the server, you can use include*() or require*() to read the file and execute the returned PHP. Simply tell the other system to not parse it in their PHP engine.
