PHP include file multiple times in one page

Question

I have a php-file called kal_test.php which gives a value to the variable $vbl. This variable is needed in the file called kal_generator.php<

Answer 1

You're likely defining a function or class in kal_generator.php. PHP aborts when you try to redefine such a function or class. Consider putting your code in a function, include that function once and then run the function instead of including a file.

kal_test.php

<?php
require_once 'kal_generator.php';
kal_generator("14/09/2011");
kal_generator("21/09/2011");
?>

kal_generator.php

<?php
function kal_generator($vbl) {
    /**
     * Here, you should be creating $output
     */
    echo <<EOF
<table>
  <tr><th>bla</th><th>blabla</th></tr>

EOF;
    foreach ($output as $v1) {
        echo "<tr>";
        foreach ($v1 as $v2) {
            echo "<td>$v2</td>";
        }
        echo "</tr>\n";
    }

    echo "</table>\n";
}
?>
