note 98945 added to function.require-once

If you are coding on localhost and require_once is not opening files due to 'relative paths' a simple solution is: <?php require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . "/file.php"); ?> If you have file.php under the folder 'includes' (or anywhere for that matter), then folder 'public' AND folder 'public/admin' will be able to access all required files despite having different relative paths. ---- Server IP: 208.69.120.55 Probable Submitter: 76.175.149.149 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.require-once.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/98945 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98945/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98945/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98945/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98945/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98945/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98945/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98945 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/98945 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
