I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but it drove me insane! If you are including a file that is in another directory to the one you are in now you must include the absoulte path to any includes in the new file eg: In directory A I have a file <?php include(../B/include.inc); ?> In directory B I have a include.inc and include2.inc In include.inc <?php // This will not work include(include2.inc) // This will include(home/path/to/my/webpage/B/include2.inc); ?> I think when you include files inside another it uses the path from the original directory, which means you have to use the absolute path or things won't work as expected ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+56258 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56258&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56258&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56258&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56258&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56258&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56258&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+56258&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
