RE: [PHP] File Path - Which way is better ?

e.g my directory structure is like below /usr/manisha/www/invitation - where all php files are situated /usr/manisha/incFiles - where all files are situated - from where I want to read There are also some files /usr/manisha/www/invitation/msgFiles - From this directory also I am reading some files So you mean to say for the first one read thr direct path for second one virtual path ? What is reason behind it ? Is it that for first one it is not possible to provide the virtual path (../../incFiles )? At 11:54 AM 5/30/02 +1000, you wrote:

I am using file to read / write data. When I give file path I can give it in 2 ways. - As a Virtual path - Real physical complete path. Which way is better and in which situation ? I just want to open up discussion so that I will come to know the pros and cons for both the methods.
