note 28442 added to configuration.directives

Probably the easiest way I have found (especially if running multiple big php projects on a single server) is to create a "master" script for each project that declares a variable $COMMON (or something like that). This can be different for each project, for example: project 1 ======= <?php $COMMON = "/php/includes/project1/" ?> project 2 ======= <?php $COMMON = "/php/includes/project2/" ?> Put each of these files in (one of) the include directory specified in php.ini. Then, in each script of a given project, do this: <?php include "project#.php" // where # is the desired project file include "${COMMON}myinclude1.php" include "${COMMON}myinclude2.php" // ...etc... ?> You can then move stuff around easily, port over to a different server, have the same include file names in different projects, etc, etc (like I usually have a gui.php file that paints my screens, in each project, but they obviously work very differently in each project). Secondary note: you should always use php as the extension for your includes so someone can't get the source through the browser by "guessing" at file names. I see a lot of people using "inc" or something like that.
