Stop executing required script

[dotkpay]

Is there a way or function that stops the execution of a required script but continues to execute the parent script, for example:

 

if this is a.php

 

<?php

echo "<br>Good morning";

 

// function to stop execution of only this script to appear here

 

echo "<br>Good Afternoon";

?>

 

and then this is b.php

 

<?php

 

require("a.php');

 

echo "<br>Good Evening";

?>

 

So if the file b.php is called it is supposed to display:

 

Good morning

Good evening

 

So it has to skip "Good afternoon" because of the anonymous function which I need

Put your code into functions and call what you need. Scripts execute from top to bottom without stopping.

Keep a.php code inside a function and call when you need it.

Why do you wanna write the later part of the code in a.php if u don't want to execute it?

You should not think of the required/included code as a separate script that is being 'called'. Think of it as source code (function definitions, class definitions, configuration information) that the main program needs to use to accomplish some goal.

 

When the require/include statement in the parent script is executed, the required/included code is executed in the scope of the parent script. The required/included code might be stored in a separate file and in a different folder, but when it is executed, it is the same as if you had copy/pasted the source code from the required/included file into the parent script at the point where the require/include statement is at.
