I have a PHP file that gets included by a lot of other files in a lot of other directories. Among other things, this file needs to display a link to that original page. I know I could specify this in a variable in each original file before the INCLUDE statement, but I'd like to do something more elegant and have the INCLUDED file recognize the original file dynamically. Is there some environmental PHP variable that has that info? -- SAMPLE -- Filename: /dummy/BigFile.php <? include "../ImportantFile.php"; ?> Filename: /ImportantFile.php <? echo $ConstantThatShowsTheFileThatIncludedIt; ?> Results: /dummy/BigFile.php Thanks, Jeff Gannaway
