Think of the behavior of include() as copying the exact text from your code
in the include'd file and pasting it as is into the calling code...a la
paper and scissors.  There is no special transformation.  So if the code in
the include'd file would have needed PHP codes if it was directly within the
calling code then it needs it in the include'd file too and if it wouldn't
have in the calling code then it won't in the include'd file.
