Switch $id session variable

[Shadows]

on a site im doing, I'm building a login script, its working fine however i have included it into a mini table under the navigation, the problem i having is I use the switch function to load the pages in the main area of the page and it works perfectly for all other links but not this one

when the user is logged in, this is echo'ed

echo "<a href='index.php?id=My Account'>My Account</a><br>";

and the code in the switch function is

case "My Account": include ('userinfo.php?user=$session->username');

the variable $session->username is what returns the users name so say I was logged in, my username is Shadows, it would look like this

userinfo.php?user=Shadows

however, this is not working

Warning: main(userinfo.php?user=$session->username): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/shadows/public_html/1.0/index.php on line 129

any idea's on how I can get $session->username to return the logged in name onto the end of the link userinfo.php?user=

[stickman373]

is userinfo.php in the same directory as the index.php?

Inclusion without a http: prefix works on a file level, so this is actually looking for a file called "userinfo.php?user=$session->username". (Not even a file called "userinfo.php?user=hugo", as substitution is only done in double-quoted strings.)

If you simply include userinfo.php, the session variable is available there, if it is global.
