?panel=homepage is for HTTP requests.
This include() is not doing an HTTP request, it is reading from the
filesystem.
There's no such file named "top.php?panel=homepage". So it won't work.
Since this is PHP reading PHP, you simply set the appropriate variable in your
outer file, and the file in the inner scope have it available as described in
the manual.
