Your include() call can then just look like: <? include('web/test/include.php'); ?> and it'll work from anywhere, regardless of where the file that's doing the including is located [1]. As a bonus, if you ever change hosts, or your host re-organizes its directory structure, and all of your includes rely on the include_path, simply re-set include_path, and your site works again. joel [1] Of course, the order of directories in your include_path matters, too. If it contains '.:/usr/home/sites/www.walkereffects.com/', then a file matching in the current working directory will take precedence over the one in your site root. So keep that in mind... -- [ joel boonstra | gospelcom.net ]
