Include question

[sekundek]

Hi!

I have some questions about using include od require in my code. I wan't to here your opinion about that.

I use something like this

include ("somedir/file.php") or sometimes
inclue ("/webdir/somedir/file.php")

But i noticed some problems in my code. I buil some library where i include one file with config stuff. Then i have another file where i include this library because i need to call some functions. But if i include the this library in other directory (ex: one level higher than others) i get an error because path for including config file in my library is not correct. I i use absolute path like /www/myhost/somedirc/conf.php i works.

I wan't to know how you deal with that problems or is here any variable to hold this path or smth.

Thanks for helping

This has been discussed several times recently; search the forum for details.

If you are keeping your include-files outside the docroot, you may need to create a site-specific variable to specify where to begin looking. Otherwise the $DOCUMENT_ROOT variable may be helpful.
