I am For PHP5 you can try __autoload(). It provides for you a last-chance / just in time loading of a class file. The main drawback of using this is that there is (currently) only one __autoload() function allowed, but this limitation should be removed once PHP5.1.0 gets rolled out. > thinking of setting up a url like /currentdir/packagename/classname, mind you this is only a > test but is it a > good or bad bad idea ?I have run into troubles getting get queries because its calling the > classname in the query alreadyso /packagename/classname?test=1 doesnt work. > Using rewrite rules would be another way you could do it. Or you could have one "main" include file that would set some variable (call it $base_dir) that points to the filesystem folder that is your root directory. I.e. <?php /** "main" include file */ $base_dir = dirname(__FILE__) . '/'; /** now include some other global classes relative to this $base_dir */ include_once ($base_dir . 'path/from/docroot/to/class.php'); ?> <?php /** some other script loads main config file */ require_once '/path/to/main.php'; /** now get your required classes */ require_once $base_dir . 'path/to/some/class.php'; ?> -- Teach a man to fish...
