How can I call a php script from within another and pass variables to it?

When you include a file, the existing variables still exists.  Just set
the variable before you require the file, and it will appear inside the
required file as well.

<?
$variable="test";
include ("other.php3");
// or require ("other.php3");
?>

You can then reference $variable inside other.php3.
