Including a file in json_encode()



Thsi does not seem to work:







$msg="Your changes have been saved successfully";



$view=include('application/view/admin/cms/_slides-current.php');



$return_array=array('success'=>true, 'msg'=>$msg, 'view'=>$view);



echo json_encode($return_array);







The array needs to be passed back to a jQuery ajax success callback. Anybody know how it should be done?





The include file is simply a HTML template. This HTML template will be inserted on to the page.





Is there any way other than using json_encode() to do what I am trying to do?







success: function(result){

alert(result.msg);



if(result.success == true)

{

$('#slides').html(result.view);

}

}

  1. include is a statement and not a function (disregard the function.include.php part). It will not return the parsed result to your $view variabe, although the file will be included just above your json_encode.

    You should use ob_start to capture the evaluated result of the view in the manner described by mihneasime:

    ob_start();
    include 'application/view/admin/cms/_slides-current.php';
    $view = ob_get_clean();

  2. ob_start();
    include 'application/view/admin/cms/_slides-current.php';
    $view = ob_get_clean();


    Should do the trick as joar suggested.

  3. Use fopen and friends to read files. include is for including them.
