RE: [PHP-DB] using code for multiple sites

Hi You could create an alias in every virtual host pointing to the same directory for all sites, or I believe apache will use anything outside the virtual host tags as being default for all sites.

This code is included into many of the pages on every site. I have duplicate copies of the code set up in each virtual host directory. Obviously this wastes space on my server and wastes my time having to update them all. I was looking for suggestions on the best way to be able to access these php files through includes for each site. A couple of the options that I have already looked into were- I could put the code all into one directory for site A and when I want to include these files I would have to include the full path to the files I really don't want to have to do this because I frequently move things and I would have to change the path on each file. either put these files into .:/usr/local/lib/php or create a directory called "inc" in /usr/local/apache and then add the following line to php.ini include_path = ".:/usr/local/apache/inc " I hope I made it clear what I want to accomplish. If you could give your recommendations I would greatly appreciate it.
