A... very interesting, thanks.

To get the path only I did this -

$path         = dirname(__FILE__);
$parts        = explode(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, $path);

array_pop($parts);

$INSTALL_PATH = implode(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, $parts);

It's kind of long...

If somebody has a better idea, I would be glad to hear.


$path = dirname(dirname(__FILE__));

That will get you the parent directory.

Iv,

tell me why you are wanting to do this?

If it is the reason I think it is, I can give you a better way to accomplish this.
