Hi
Some year ago I started developing a big site in php using CGI version 4.1.1 on win2k server with IIS 5.0. In my php.ini then i had
include_path="d:\web\mysite\mysite"
That was the root of my site - www.mysitename.com. Back then i could do absolute includes from where ever in my site, like if i'd wanted to include d:\web\mysite\mysite\libs\database\open_db.php from say, d:\web\mysite\mysite\subwebs\news\main_frame.php i just did:
include("/libs/database/open_db.php");
(in main_frame.php that is). This site is still running on a server i just have ftp access to. Now, one year later, im setting up an production environment at home before releasing on that server. I've got the same setup except using php 4.3.3. The php.ini is the same other than that i can not really tell but these kind of includes won't work. I figured an include("/file.php") searches for the file in the drive root. HOW did the system administrator manage to make these simple includes work on the same setup i'm using.
