well see, not to say that anyone here is wrong, but i couldn't get any of the examples to work
correctly when the function was used in the document root. using pathinfo() $pathinfo[dirname] would
return $deep as 1 whether it was used in / or /somedir/. so, i rewrote the first one into this:
function doc_root($path) {
$deep = substr_count($path, "/");
for($i = 1; $i < $deep; $i++) {
$document_root .= "../";
}
return $document_root;
}
$document_root=doc_root($REQUEST_URI);
now the function works because pathinfo() isn't used.
