Adding text from Languages Directory

[cczernia]

I have a bunch of text that is in

 

includes/languages/english/shipping.php

 

I want to include the text labeled TEXT_INFORMATION (located in shipping.php) in checkout_shipping.php without copy and pasting. However if I put:

 

<?php echo TEXT_INFORMATION; ?>

 

in checkout_shipping.php all it prints out is "TEXT_INFORMATION" I can't figure out how to access the right file so I can output the right text. Any help would be great.

 

Thanks in advance.

Never mind. Managed to figure it out. I added this which somehow accessed the right file.

 

  require(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $language . '/' . FILENAME_SHIPPING);
