In your case, it would appear by coincidence to match up with 'document_root' -- well, perhaps not "coincidence" since many webhosts restrict their users' FTP accounts to only be their own web directories, so they can't go poking around in other people's stuff quite as easily. -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
