Since the include function is called from within a PHP script, why
does the included file have to identify itself as a PHP again by
enclosing its code in <?php> ... <?>

One would assume that the PHP interpreter works like any other, that
is, it first expands all the include files, and then parses the
resulting text. Can anyone help with an explanation?

Thanks,
