How to assign the contents of a file to a variable in PHP

Question

I have a document file containing HTML markup. I want to assign the contents of the entire file to a PHP variable.

I have this line of code:

$body = in

Answer 1

Yes you can its easy.

In the file you want to use the variable place this

require_once ‘/myfile.php';
if(isset($responseBody)) {
    echo $responseBody;
    unset($responseBody);
}    

In the file you are calling /myfile.php place this

$responseBody = 'Hello world, I am a genius';
