    Ive got a function on one PHP file which is:

    <?php
$nav = '<div>
  <div align="center">
    <script type="text/javascript" src="stmenu.js"></script>
    </head>
    
    <body>
      <script type="text/javascript">
?>
    PHP:
    I need to echo this onto another php file. How do I do this?

    I'm assuming you mean variable instead of function?

    The better way to do this I think would be to move variables (as well as functions) that will be used in multiple files and put them in a file called includes.php. Once you do that, if you intend on using them, just do <?php include('includes.php'); ?> and then you should be able to use that variable.
