Re: Problems with includes

Their are two ways that come to mind. 1. Like Dan suggested, use the full path. 2. (I prefer this way), change your include_path setting either in your php.ini file, virtual host, .htaccess or in your script to include the base path for your web site "/srv/www/html/" and then you can call them by simply removing the leading slash from your existing calls.

    require 'Tools/tool1/tool1.php';
    require 'Tools/tool2/tool2.php';

So in say, php.ini, I set the include path to something like: include_path = ".:/php/includes:/srv/www/html" Will pointing it at "/srv/www/html" open up any security holes?
