Okay, I'm stumped!!! I have all of my database connection info in a file: connection.php This info is stored in a folder: Connections Example of connection.php: <?php $connection = mssql_pconnect('SERVER','user','password') or die ('server connection failed'); $database = mssql_select_db("my_database", $connection) or die ('DB selection failed'); ?> I am trying to include the connection.php file in all of my pages so I don't have to hard code the info into every page. But, my data never returns because the include apparently is not working. If I remove the include and hard code the info, it works. Here is an example of the include statement I am using on my pages. <?php include '../../Connections/connection.php'; ?> The Connections folder is two level above my form page. Example file structure below. ROOT Connections

       connection.php

Submit

       Current_Forms
            My_Form.php

I've tried ../../../Connections/connection.php, ../../Connections/connection.php, ../Connections/connection.php but nothing works. Any ideas what I am doing wrong??? Set your error_reporting to E_ALL.

and set display_errors to On Then you should be able to see all the errors. Because, without the error messages, we are not going to be able to help you. Might I recommend to use include_once instead. This way, it will only create one connection -- Jim Lucas "Some men are born to greatness, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them."
