I have the following PHP script

<?php

$contentpage = "http://www.example.com/about/page.php";

require("http://www.example.com/passprotect.php");

if (function_exists('showpage'))

	{

	echo "2: function declared";

	}

else

	{

	echo "2: function not declared";

	}

showpage();

?>

And 'www.example.com/passprotect.php' contains

<?php

function showpage()

	{

	/*

	A long is function for password protected webpages

	...

	*/

	if ($passValid)

		{

		require($contentpage);

		}

	}

if (function_exists('showpage'))

	{

	echo "1: function declared";

	}

else

	{

	echo "1: function not declared";

	}

?>

The function is declared when the second PHP page is require()'d but then it creates an error when I try and call it again.
Is there anything I can do about this?

I am relatively new to PHP so please excuse any stupid mistakes

Why are you using the URL for the require, instead of the file name? Accessing it via a URL means you will just be receiving "1: function declared", not the function.

Ahh, okay, I fixed it now. Thanks a lot.
