If it's in the top level directory, then maybe that directory should be hard-coded into the include_path, as well as '.' include_path ".:/whatever/httpd.conf/has/for/DocumentRoot:/full/path/to/PEAR" > So how can I get PHP to look in /?

This all rules out the above, but one possibility is this: In just the script that gives you trouble do this: include_path("/full/path/to/DocumentRoot:" . include_path()); This may not be the right syntax/function to set include_path, but it is a dynamic way to set the include path, from within PHP. Of course, for the multiple deployments, you'll need to make the path based on the deployment somehow. Now, on to the simple solution I intimated at the beginning... If mod_rewrite is giving you the headaches it gives me, just get rid of it. :-) INSTEAD, do this. Create a PHP script, and name it 'x' In .htaccess, force 'x' to be PHP as far as Apache is concerned: <Files x> ForceType application/x-httpd-php </Files> You can now access your "x=123" from $_SERVER['PATHINFO'] (or is it 'PATH_INFO'? No more endless tweaking of Regex rules in httpd.conf and logging the mod_rewrite and dinking with ^/[0-9]+ junk and re-starting Apache every time you want to try a change. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
