I think I phrased that correctly.

What I need is to call all my subnavigation includes for ALL subfolders, no matter how deep the folders go. I have it working properly for the root level of each main folder, just dont know how to set all subdirectories within.

My current code...

if ($REQUEST_URI == '/services/') {

include ("$DOCUMENT_ROOT/services/include/servicesnav.inc");
}

And I have each main nav area set up, along with my else statement which just spits out an echo.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

    could you explain more? its not clear what you want.

      Um, I'm not sure how else to phrase that other than what I have stated above.

      ???

        If you're wanting to do what I think you're wanting to do you're going to have to read through the directories and include the files where you find them. I'm assuming you have a directory with many subdirectories and you have a filename and you wish to include all occurences of this filename into your script. Below is some code using a recursive algorithm (about the simplest way of getting this done) which should get the job done. I'm not quite sure how using include from within a function works though, not done it myself before.
        If you have trouble figureing out what's going on then check up on the www.php.net site for the following functions opendir, is_file, readdir, is_dir. Remember to read the comments as well as they often have some very usefull information.

        function checkAllSubdirs($dir, $file) {
    if(!$dh = opendir($dir))
        return false;
    if(is_file($dir.'/'.$file) && is_readable($dir.'/'.$file))
        include_once($dir.'/'.$file);
    while($item=readdir($dh)) {
        if(is_dir($item) && $item!='.' && $item!='..') {
            checkAllSubdirs($dir.'/'.$item, $file);
        }
    }
    return true;
}


if($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']=='/services/') {
    checkAllSubdirs($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/services', 'servicesnav.inc');
}

        HTH

          Hey Bubble, thanks for your response. Unfortunately that function didn't seem to work, although I am looking into opendir calls and see if I can figure it out another way. I just thought I could add the * at the end of my directory listing and php would automatically include all subfolders and irectories as part of the included list. But I was wrong.

          Thx anyways -
