yes... that's what I'm doing now... to set the value for the variable
and then include the second file... but, I was wondering if I could do
a function like include, but add argument to the second file...

something like this

first.php
include("second.php?id=1")

second.php
do whatever, with the id value

so... what I want is not to set the value before... but... to send the
value to the file... something like you use when linking... i.e.
<a href='second.php?id=1'>
but... without the link... something like include

is that possible?
