Hello Larry, Now I think I got it :) > All include statements are parsed based on the > defined include path, where "." is interpreted > relative to the active context, vis, the script > that the web server itself is running. I wasn't aware of the existence of an include_path... That's why I was having a strange behaviour. It doesn't look for the files in one only one place. Instead, it looks for the files in possible places (defined by include_path) using a priority for that.
