Ok. In the root of the Webserver (Win | Apache) I have a directory called images and one called about. /+root (Win=C:\Inetpub\wwwroot, Apache=/home/../../public_html +-about +-images I call a page in about (/about/index.php). One this page I have a script to open an image file and get the size. DOC_ROOT gives me /root/about. This can go down 'x' number of levels. How do I /root/ dir from anywhere in my site?
