dirname can be used to create self referencing web scripts with the following one liner.
<?php
$base_url = str_replace($DOCUMENT_ROOT, "", dirname($PHP_SELF));
?>
Using this method on a file such as:
/home/mysite/public_html/wherever/whatever.php
will return:
/wherever
Now $base_url can be used in your HTML to reference other scripts in the same directory.
Example for http://coralclub24.com/
href='<?=$base_url?>/myscript.php'
