I just got very frustrated with PHP. I am trying to figure out how all these pieces fit together, but all the articles I find are from 2012 or earlier, which is useless. Solved. See comments.

Here's basically what i'm trying to do:

loginpage.php:

require autoload.php;

require facebook.php;

use Facebook/Session;

facebook.php

use Facebook/Session;

use Facebook/LoginRedirectHelper;

// do stuff

$facebookloginurl = $helper->getlogin();

loginpage.php (continued):

<a href="$facebookloginurl;">login</a>

^ This is an error. Even though I am using the same namespace, the variables do not exist that I set in the included file!

I am wondering what the proper method of handling this would be, such as having to define my own namespace and class to make it available to the main page…? I know theres a few PHP guru's here. I know it….
