That was.. slightly confusing. I /think/ that the include_path >directive in php.ini may help you. You can set the include_path to have multiple directories by separating each path with a colon. If you are using Apache, you could also use .htaccess files to override the default config or you could add a directive in the htppd.conf file, such as : <IfModule mod_php4.c> php_value include_path "/usr/local/lib/php/:/pages/php/wow/" </IfModule> Ian
