PHP Code:

require_once('http://www.domain.com/intuitco/cotw/functions/cotw_func_contest_num.php?do=sotw'); 


(of course you'd replace www.domain.com with your domain name).


Another alternative might be something like:

PHP Code:

$savedo = $_GET['do'];
$_GET['do'] = 'sotw';
ob_start(); 
  require_once('./intuitco/cotw/functions/cotw_func_contest_num.php'); 
$cotw_sotw_contests_number = ob_get_contents(); 
ob_end_clean(); 
vB_Template::preRegister('COTW_SOTW',array('cotw_sotw_contests_number' => $cotw_sotw_contests_number));  

$_GET['do'] = $savedo; 


but I'm not sure, I've never tried that, and it probably depends on what the included script actually does.

Well the second code you suggested did eliminate the error but the value does not show though. I beleive it has to do with the php?do= part. Here is the file I am using:

PHP Code:

<?php
//===================================Contests Number==================================//
//Require This is required everywhere//
require_once('./global.php'); 
//This protection si also required//
define('CSRF_PROTECTION', true); 
//================================First Contest:Signature Of The Week=======================================//
//==============================NOTHING IS CHANGED BEYOND THIS LINE!!!!!====================================//
//==========================================================================================================//
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'sotw')

{
$result = $db->query_read("SELECT id FROM cotw_sotw_time_end ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1");
$row = mysql_fetch_row($result);
echo $row[0];
}
//=========================================================================================================//
//===================================Second Contest:Avatar Of The Week=====================================//
//==============================NOTHING IS CHANGED BEYOND THIS LINE!!!!!====================================//
//==========================================================================================================//
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'aotw')

{
    $result = $db->query_read("SELECT id FROM cotw_aotw_time_end ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1");
$row = mysql_fetch_row($result);
echo $row[0];
}
//==========================================================================================================//
//=================================END OF PRINTING CURRENT CONTEST NUMBER===================================//
//==========================================================================================================//
?>

I could just use two seperate files but it seems a waste to have to use 2 files to do such a simple operation....Any ideas?
