Hello everyone, I have a problem, that I hope you can help me to solve: I'm writing a very simple PHP script to list a directory contents based on a 'user' variable given by a login/password script. The problem is, the webhosting i'm using don't allow the so called "URL file-access" ( i'm using PANDELA.COM ). It's a great hosting but this feature is breaking my legs: When the user put his name/passwrod, the script will check of course his information and then will allow the user to access his directory information, and then the "url variable" will look like this. $username= $_GET['logininfo']; include "/bd/userdirs/$username/listdir.php"; Ok, I know that the hosting don't allow that kind of include. But, is there a workaround for that? I mean, every user has their own folder, and every folder has a default script called listdir.php - all that this script does is to list all files avaiable to him. But then, I get this error message below. Warning: include() [function.include]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/users/b9/myhost/www/myhost.pandela.org/bd/loginuser.php on line 41 Any help would be very appreciated.

URL include is when you include files from http://www.domain.com/file.php, that shouldn't be this... But keep in mind that the directory you log into with FTP isn't / Try this include: What if you do this: include "/home/users/b9/myhost/www/myhost.pandela.org/bd/userdirs/$username/listdir.php"; Tijnema
