Hi Giles,
I'm developing a fusebox PHP app and have a class in a /classes directory that opens an xml file in a directory below the site root using this path: "../siteconfig.xml"
All of the places I have used this class from so far have been in the site root. I am now starting some pages in a sub directory. When I use this class it says it can't open the file. I have tried "../../siteconfig.xml" instead but it doesn't work either.
What's the best way to go about fixing this? I'm quite new to php and I'm not sure where the relative path is taken from - i.e. is it the index.php page or the class (obviously not) or my switch file or what?
You might want to set your global parameters (such as the full path to class files) in a config file which is auto_prepend'ed to each PHP script.
That way you can always require_once( $GLOBALS['classPath'] . '/class.YourClass.php' ) regardless of your working directory.
