Use __autoload() -- it'll make your life a lot easier:
<http://www.php.net/autoload>
Here's what mine looks like (my files are named after my classes, so a
class called Foo lives in a file called Foo.php):
if(!function_exists('__autoload')) {
function __autoload($class_name) {
require_once($class_name . '.php');
}
}
ini_set('unserialize_callback_func', '__autoload');
Put all that in a file (call it autoload.php or something), then just
require_once that file on all your pages. No need to include each
class separately -- only things that are needed will be loaded (and in
the right order, too). Problem solved!
