     Prior to PHP 4.0.2, the following applies: <A
HREF="function.require.html"
><B
CLASS="function"
>require()</B
></A
> will 
     always attempt to read the target file, even if the line it's on never executes.
     The conditional statement won't affect <A
HREF="function.require.html"
><B
CLASS="function"
>require()</B
></A
>. However, 
     if the line on which the <A
HREF="function.require.html"
><B
CLASS="function"
>require()</B
></A
> occurs is not executed, 
     neither will any of the code in the target file be executed.  Similarly, looping 
     structures do not affect the behaviour of <A
HREF="function.require.html"
><B
CLASS="function"
>require()</B
></A
>. Although 
     the code contained in the target file is still subject to the loop, the 
     <A
HREF="function.require.html"
><B
CLASS="function"
>require()</B
></A
> itself happens only once.
