However, I´d rather like to see this fixed in the (include|require)_once functions, meaning that PHP should probably resolve the full path to a file before writing it to its internal table of included files. That would really solve all problems, IMHO. Regards, Markus -- Markus Wolff <wolff@21st.de>
