Question

I’ve three files:

index.php 
/include/conf.php 
/include/database.php

conf.php contains variables to connect to the database.
database.php includes conf.php and has a function to return an entire table as array. index.php includes /include/database.php and calls get_table('users');

XDebug says me that $db_host, $db_user, $db_pass and $db_name are not defined.

How can I pass the Database related variables through external files?

Answer 1

Use PHP Define function

eg:

define("db_host", "localhost");

Or Use

PHP Session variable
