Bug or programmer-error?

Dear PHP_friends,

I have found a strange behaviour of the "include"  function.

Here it is .

            // 1. this works fine 

                        include ("../../gps_info/fetch_fields.php");

            // 2. this works fine

                        $doc_root=$_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT];

                        include
("$doc_root"."/pages/gps_info/fetch_fields.php");

            // 3. this open the doc fetch_fields.php allright, but variables
that have been set outside fetchfields.php are not available within
fetch_fields.php

                        $root= 'webserver-2';

                        include
("$root"."/pages/gps_info/fetch_fields.php");

Does anybody have a clou as to what's wrong here?

Best regards/ Met vriendelijke groet,
