a question about includes

i used an include to include a php script.
but there is the number 1 displaying next to my include.

you can see it here, the numbers are on the left:

why are those numbers there and how do i get rid of them please?

 

Can we see the include line?

I know that when successfull, include returns true which resolves to 1 when printed

 

just a simple include?

<?php
echo
include( "index.php" );
?>

Code (markup):

 

You're probably doing something like:

print include('foo.php');

Which will print 1 and show the includes content if it finds the file.

Remove the print statement.

 

include returns true by default on success. True has the value of 1, and you're echoing the include. That's where the 1 comes from. Just remove the echo, which is not necessary here, and it'll work.

 

thanks, i appreciate you taking the time to educate me.
rep for all who posted.

 

do this instead

<?php

include( "index.php" );
?>
