note 51699 added to function.require

If you use relativ paths in a php script (file A) that can be required by another php script (file B), be aware that the relativ paths in file A will be relativ to the directory, where file B is stored. You can use the following syntax in file A, to be sure that the paths are relativ to the directory of file A: <? require(dirname(__FILE__)."/path/relative/file_to_include.php"); ?> Greetings, Richard ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.require.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+51699 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51699&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51699&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51699&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51699&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51699&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+51699&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
