PHP Require Statement
What is Require function?
Explanation
Require function is similar to include() function the only difference is that include() function will continue code execution after giving a warning message, but require() function will end the code execution after giving a Fatal error message
<?php
require ("test1.php");
echo "HI";
?> Result :
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required test1.php
In the above example the "Require()" structure is giving a Fatal Error message as test1.php is not existent and stops the execution of the code below, but if the "Include" structure is used it will give a warning message and continue the processing to display "HI"
Example :
<?php
require ("test1.php");
echo "HI";
?>
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required test1.php
In the above example the "Require()" structure is giving a Fatal Error message as test1.php is not existent and stops the execution of the code below, but if the "Include" structure is used it will give a warning message and continue the processing to display "HI"
