You might (or might not) be able to edit "php.ini" and alter the include_path there. If your ISP doesn't give you your own php.ini file, (most don't) then you *probably* have permission to use an .htaccess file to do that: Create a file named ".htaccess" (yes, the '.' at the beginning is for real) and put a line like this in it: php_value include_path "./:/path/to/your/home/directory/:/any/other/directory/you/like" Note that this syntax is subtly different (php_value) from the php.ini syntax. If you have your own server, and edit php.ini, make sure that: A) You are editing the same php.ini that <?php phpinfo();?> says it is using. B) You stop/start Apache so the new php.ini is re-loaded. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
