This is one of the reasons that I removed the "includes" when I wrote
phpauth and simply made the header and footer into functions.  No
question about scope, it's not global so you're forced to specify if
that's what you need.

It's as easy when using phplib, particularly with php4, simply make sure
that everything is explicitly $GLOBALS['varname'].
