include error in IIS

[alanrenouf]

I am having a problem with an include:

include ("../intranet/header.php");

Doesn't work !

I get:

Warning: Failed opening '../intranet/header.php' for inclusion (include_path='') in D:\Eric\alan_test.php on line 2

I have found that if you are in the same web (using IIS 4.0) you can include pages using relative links ie ../header.php

But when you are in another web you can not use relative links or direct links, the both have the same error as above.

Any ideas ?

You can always use relative links, but you must remember that the paths in the include() statements are relative to the real filesystem directory that the script was started in. It has nothing at all to do with the documentroot directory.
