Okay, I'm stumped!!!

I have all of my database connection info in a file: connection.php
This info is stored in a folder: Connections
Example of connection.php:
<?php
$connection = mssql_pconnect('SERVER','user','password') or die ('server
connection failed');
$database = mssql_select_db("my_database", $connection) or die ('DB
selection failed');
?>

I am trying to include the connection.php file in all of my pages so I don't
have to hard code the info into every page.
But, my data never returns because the include apparently is not working.
If I remove the include and hard code the info, it works.

Here is an example of the include statement I am using on my pages.

<?php include '../../Connections/connection.php'; ?>

The Connections folder is two level above my form page.  Example file
structure below.

ROOT
   Connections
       connection.php
   Submit
       Current_Forms
            My_Form.php

I've tried ../../../Connections/connection.php,
../../Connections/connection.php, ../Connections/connection.php but nothing
works.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong???

Set your error_reporting to E_ALL.
and set display_errors to On

Then you should be able to see all the errors.

Because, without the error messages, we are not going to be able to help you.

Might I recommend to use include_once instead.  This way, it will only create one connection
