I have a file that calls a set of functions “utils.php”, however when I include it, my show_source function includes the source of the included file. I tried putting the function file in a parent folder, but even calling..

include("../includes/utils.php");

Still shows the source of the file. How do I disable the source for any included files? Thanks in advanced!

Edit: I found out why it was showing the source, it was some weird PHP issue my school has.. sorry for the confusion as well, but showing the source was a parameter of the assignment
