Cant get include to work...

Hi

This may be easy to most of you, but as a newbiw; I'm struggling.

I am bringing in an include into a php file, but cant run the commands
within the include.

As an example, Within my php page I write:

{php}include("content/myinclude.php");{/php}

and the contents of myinclude.php is:

{php}
print "Hello";
{/php}
<br />This is just placeholder text

Then when I view the page in the browser I see that the include is
being brought in but is displayed as:

{php} print "Hello"; {/php}
This is just placeholder text

And the {php} doesn't execute.

I have set both the include and the page it is being brought into as
executable on the unix server it is sitting on.

I am right in saying that the result should only be:

Hello
This is just placeholder text

Aren't I?

Many Thanks

John
