I’ve created a php file called pagebase.php that I’m quite proud of. It contains a class that created the whole html file for me from input such as css links and js links.
In any case, this file is several hundred lines long, as it includes several helper functions such as cleanHTML() that removes all whitespace from the html code then, in layman’s terms, makes the source look pritty.
I have decided to use this pagebase in all my projects, particularly in all my internal projects. I also plan to add and expand to the pagebase file quite a lot. So what I’m wondering is if it’s possible to set the allow_url_include option to on, but just on this one single file.
If I got my theory right, that would allow me to include() that file from any server and get the pagebase class.
No, as far as I’m aware this is not possible.
What you are planning to do sounds like a bad idea anyway, though. An include that gets loaded over the web on every request is awful for performance.
You should keep local copies of your library, and use a update script (or version control system) to keep versions up to date.
