NO, not the directory of the current script. the directory of your virtual host. DOCUMENT_ROOT is your WEB ROOT common. I gave an example... look into your apache (vHOST) DocumentRoot is what your $DOCUMENT_ROOT is Sincerely, Maxim Maletsky Founder, Chief Developer PHPBeginner.com (Where PHP Begins) maxim@phpbeginner.com www.phpbeginner.com -----Original Message----- From: Jordan Elver [mailto:jjelver@worldsites.net] Sent: Wednesday, April 25, 2001 7:03 PM To: Yasuo Ohgaki Cc: PHP General Mailing List Subject: Re: [PHP] DOCUMENT_ROOT Thanks for the reply, I'm not using virtual hosts on my local machine but I am on the production machine. What should DOCUMENT_ROOT return? I though it returns the directory of the current script. So if I had a site in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/cha/script.php then I would expect DOCUMENT_ROOT to return /usr/local/apache/htdocs/cha/, is that right? Is it posible to setup a virtual host on localhost? Cheers, Jord On Wednesday 25 April 2001 01:05, you wrote: > If you are using Apache virtual host, it will set virtual host's document > root.
