I need to load a PHP file into a variable. Like include();

I have loaded a simple HTML file like this:

$Vdata = file_get_contents("textfile.txt");

But now I need to load a PHP file.

If your file has a return statement like this:

<?php return array(
  'AF' => 'Afeganistão',
  'ZA' => 'África do Sul',
  ...
  'ZW' => 'Zimbabué'
);

You can get this to a variable like this:

$data = include $filePath;
