Trouble when I require global.php

[bigtime]

Hi,

This code works to print out the value of $test:

PHP Code:

<?
session_start();
include ("config.php");

$test = "this is a test";

chdir("../$vb_dir/");

echo "$test";

require('./global.php');  

///CODE goes on from here.......................

When I try to echo the value for $test after global.php has been required it doesn't echo the value for $test?

This doesn't work:

PHP Code:

<?
session_start();
include ("config.php");

$test = "this is a test";

chdir("../$vb_dir/");

require('./global.php');  

echo "$test";

///CODE goes on from here.......................

How can I get the value for $test to echo after I require global.php?

Thanks,

Tim

I believe global.php unsets all variables as a security measure
