using 'include("secondfile.php");' should do the trick. The second
script is, for all intents and purposes, essentially inserted into your
first script at the point of the 'include' statement. There is no need
to pass variables, although the usual global/local variables issues
still apply with regard to functions (ie drop the ?var= stuff).
If you continue to get "Failed opening" type error messages check the
read and execute permissions on the second script. Can the second
script be run directly via a browser? Is the path to the second script
used in your include statement correct?
