note 22643 added to function.realpath

I think a few of you are a little confused as to what this function is supposed to do. The documentation says that the function resolves: ./ ../ and extra '/' characters in the path, Nothing about that says that the function should accept a URL. It's for local path resolution. If you stop to think about it, there's no way you can resolve a full path from root on a remote system just by having a url. This function will give you the absolute path to a file. So if you know that include.php is two directories above the script you are in realpath('../../include.php'); would return the full path from / to include.php, whatever that may be. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.realpath.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+22643 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+22643 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+22643
