about including files

[vividona]

Hi friends,

I don't know how to explain this.

I am confusing when regarding including files.

suppose I have these stuff in my script:

folder1/test1.php

folder2/test2.php

index.php

if I need to include test1.php file to be inside test2.php file, I use this function

require"../folder1/test1.php"; // (correct right???).

if I need to call test2.php to be available in index.php, I use this

require("folder2/test2.php"); // (correct right???).

but the problem it will refuse the first path which we include first.

require"../folder1/test1.php";

bcs "../" means from folder to folder

how can I make all paths readable???

One way to avoid the issue entirely is to use absolute paths:

include $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/folder1/test1.php';

Another way would be to use an inclue_path:

<?php
set_include_path($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']);
include 'folder1/test1.php';
