TJ,
PHP is executed server-side, not client-side. If your host is properly
configured, there is no way anyone can see your PHP code.
If the server is configured improperly, you have a problem. Dana's suggestion
will work in this case - they won't be able to see anything besides the include
statement.
But is it worth the extra hassle and maintenance? I do this for critical files
such as ones containing passwords. But not the every-day files.
