Python - Include another Python script
I have a question. When you are programming in PHP you can use this to include external php script to current script.
include('test_page.php');
So you don't have to repeat a code in every script. Is there a way in Python to include another Python script, just like the php page?

In Python,
you can import the different scripts/modules by using import , just make sure they are in same directory and proper function/class.
If modulename.py is an function
import modulename
if modulename.py is a set a different functions.
from modulename import particularfunction

If you have "script.py", just make:
import script
If you have a particular function or a class in the script then:
from script import function
Remember having it in the pwd. If the script is not in pwd, then you need to append a path to it. So before importing:
import sys
sys.path.append("PATH_TO_SCRIPT")
import script

If I want to make a database connection in an include, I get the error:if not self._cnx: ReferenceError: weakly-referenced object no longer exists

What type of the database do you have? And how do you create this connection? Normally you create connection in the main script, via methods provided with other imported modules and scripts.
