Re: Fw: adding a temporary note to announcement on gtk.php-coder.net

Frank, you're a star :) You're right, it's loading from the wrong directory, I moved php.exe and everything else out of php4 dir and into php4\dev (where php files and xpm files reside) and typed: cd\php4\dev php -q gtk.php and hey presto, it all works fine! Thank you for analyzing that, I had thought along those lines as far as putting xpm files into strange directories and trying again ... but not in that direction.. I've removed the exe and dll's from php4\dev back to php4 and everything works as expected *so long as* I stick the xpm files in php4 alongside them. But it didn't *used* to load from the wrong directory... I've used the "fileopener.php" file we all write first, from the first week of using PHP-GTK, and I've always put the xpm files in the same directory as the php files until now. There the mystery remains. Something must've been changed in the way PHP chooses which directory is "current" for this to happen, but I'm utterly ignorant of it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Frank M.

If this is not what is happening on your system I dont know what is going wrong. I do remember some errors in the way php handled the current working directory though so if this worked in 0.0.4 that might be due to an error in php it self ? - Frank > ps Markus and I already tried this, my pixmaps load fine elsewhere.. > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Steph" <Steph.Fox@btinternet.com> > To: "Frank M.
