from http://us2.php.net/function.include
When a file is included, the code it contains inherits the variable scope of
the
line on which the include occurs. Any variables available at that line in
the
calling file will be available within the called file, from that point
forward.
However, all functions and classes defined in the included file have the
global scope.
