note 68017 added to function.dirname

The best way to get the absolute path of the folder of the currently parsed PHP script is: <?php if (DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR=='/') $absolute_path = dirname(__FILE__).'/'; else $absolute_path = str_replace('\\\\', '/', dirname(__FILE__)).'/'; ?> This will result in an absolute unix-style path which works ok also on PHP5 under Windows, where mixing '\' and '/' may give troubles. ---- Server IP: 213.92.11.19 Probable Submitter: 151.44.90.54 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.dirname.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/68017 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68017/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68017/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68017/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68017/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68017/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68017/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68017 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/68017 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
