note 25769 added to configuration

my question is about php being able to read folders above the folder in which it is running. i want to stop this from happening. for example, if my php script is running in c:/web/mysite/ then i dont want this script to be able to read anything above this folder, anything below this folder (any sub-folders of this folder) are ok. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+25769 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+25769 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+25769
