Central storage of included files

[Anon]

can somebody tell me a way of storing all my "include" files in a central folder.

What reference to that included file should then be included in the using file

E.G.

In file1.php the file needed.php is included.

But needed is not in the same directory/folder.

Thanks

Well yes; it's called a path. What it looks like depends on where you want the directory to be, but something like

include("$DOCUMENT_ROOT/library/needed.php");

isn't beyond the realm of possibility.

See the manual for the definition of $DOCUMENT_ROOT, and similar predefined variables.
