Rasmus said "you can just use ./includes/foo.php, why have an extra function call" (the dirname) but i tried that on one of my setups and what is odd is it couldn't find the files from the forced relative paths which should work just fine. there could have been other weird voodoo going on too, but i know for a fact dirname(__FILE__) has been reliable and the best part is it does not require $_SERVER. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
