this little function gets the top level public directory
eg. http://www.mysite.com/directory1/file.php
or http://www.mysite.com/directory1/directory2/directory3/file.php
will both return "directory1" ...which is the top level directory
<?php
function public_base_directory()
{
//get public directory structure eg "/top/second/third"
$public_directory = dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
//place each directory into array
$directory_array = explode('/', $public_directory);
//get highest or top level in array of directory strings
$public_base = max($directory_array);
return $public_base;
}
?>
