using require_once to display contents of a file

    Hi all,

    I have a form which I use over and over on different pages. I usually just use the following in my non wordpress sites : require_once(“./wp-content/form.php”)without any problems HOWEVER when I do this in wordpress it does not display the contents of the file.

    I know it has found the file because when I view the source I can see the text in the page but it isn’t showing up to the end user….wordpress has stripped out all of the html tags (no <form>, no <table>) and just dumps the text into the code.

    If anyone has any ideas I would be very grateful..it’s driving me mad!

    Thanks a lot

    Just fixed this….

    It was displaying the contents in the meta description and not the body.

    I changed ‘require_once’ to simply ‘include’ and it now works. Seems it was accessed once in the headers and then not again later one.
