I have a similar problem, but I'm having some difficulty.

The problem is, I'm trying to get a php script that makes it's own call to a different database on the same server, called "center".

The phpinclude_start statement looks like this:

ob_start();
require_once ('../center/activity.php');
$activity1 = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

But when that happens, I get database errors on my forums, saying it can't find variable this, variable that - it looks like once it switches to my "center" database it doesn't switch back to the vbulletin db.

I tried using

chdir("$/var/www/html/forums");

After the above include, but that did nothing.

Anyone have any ideas? I'm sure I'm doing something wrong here. I tried using "include" and "require" above as well.
