Beware trying to include a file without a specific include path set or included (file name only), of
which there are duplicate copy(ies) with identical file name on the site, but in different
locations; just spent a few merry hours (not) trying to find out why a module I'm editing
refuses to show any different web page behaviour!
Because I didn't know another, earlier, copy of it was in the root level of the site, instead
of the sub-folder where it's supposed to be (as just one instance of the file), so PHP kept
fetching the one from the top root level. Doh!
NB: the module doing the include() is also in the same sub-folder, but it's interesting that
PHP still defaulted to searching the root level first, and used the one found there.
HTH
