You need to eval your code (not "exec"):
eval($contents);
Note that $contents need to be valid PHP for eval(). It must not start with
"<?php" since eval assumes it is code anyway. Some examples:
A) HTML with PHP interspersed
<b>Some HTML</b><br /><?php echo date('Y'); ?>Blah
you should
eval("?>$contents<?php");
B) Plain PHP
echo date('Y');
you should
eval($contents);
C) "Incomplete" PHP (missing semicolon)
call_this_function(blah)
you should
eval("$contents;");
If the PHP code returns some value, this will be the return of eval:
$contents="return time();";
$t = eval($contents);
You get the idea.
