is this a bug?

I dont know what is happening...


Can somebody clarify the situation for me?


here is the situation:

i have 3 files:

class.php
foo.php
bar.php

// - class.php
class globalactions {

function include_file($module) {
if ($module) {
return ("modules/".$module."/templates/".$module.".php");
} else { return include("modules/main/templates/index.php"); }
}
}


// - foo.php
include "lib/clients.class.php";
$clients = new clients(); //instatiating the clients class


// - bar.php
include 'class.php';
$globalactions = new globalactions ();
include $globalactions->include_file("foo"); //return ->
"modules/foo/templates/foo.php"

var_dump($clients); //will return the object



OK. All this works. but i want make some changes.

Well.. What i want to do is this:

class.php:

change the line:
return ("modules/".$module."/templates/".$module.".php");

to:
return include ("modules/".$module."/templates/".$module.".php");

and in the bar.php:


// - bar.php
include 'class.php';
$globalactions = new globalactions ();
$globalactions->include_file("foo"); //return -> "include
modules/foo/templates/foo.php" // OK. This works.

var_dump($clients); //i dont get the object here. I got NULL!!! why?!?!!?
