Path to PHP script

[harryman100]

Hi,

I know you can use $PHP_SELF to get the name of the script currently running, and there are various other variable to get the full path to a script, but is there any way to get JUST the path. i.e.

I want it to return: "/var/www/html/website/edit/"
Instead of: "/var/www/html/website/edit/script.php"

The only ones I found returned the second option.

Thanks in advance

Harry

easiest way ive seen is to use the [man]dirname/man function

for the current file instead of accessint PHP_SELF via local or $_SERVER form just use the predefined constant FILE

dirname(FILE)
