When you include something via http, then the content that gets included  
will be whatever you get were you to visit the URL in a browser, i.e.  
apache (or equivalent) is serving the config file as a PHP file, and code  
is executed. So you'll notice echo'd text, but assignment of variables has  
no impact on the code that does the include-ing.
One option is to rename the file to a '.inc', but then of course anyone  
can view the contents so probably not sensible for a config file...

If the files are on the same machine, then you just need to access them  
via the appropriate filepath.
