Note Submitter: john at interactivate dot com ---- I work on a wide variety of websites in a number of hosting environments that are subject to change without notice. In order to bypass php's include path, I always use: require getenv("DOCUMENT_ROOT")."/path/to/include/file.php"; This allows me to keep all my include files in the webspace for that particular site (and I never worry about what happens if somebody changes the php.ini, or if I move the site to a different host, etc.) without having to put relative paths in my include directives.
