RE: [PHP-WIN] "/" path under include() function.

actually, you can set the include_path preference in the php.ini file, once it is set all you have to do is call the file name in your include() command. under the include_path setting See http://www.php.net/manual/configuration.php for more information include_path string Specifies a list of directories where the require(), include() and fopen_with_path() functions look for files. The format is like the system's PATH environment variable: a list of directories separated with a colon in UNIX or semicolon in Windows. Example 3-1. UNIX include_path include_path=.:/home/httpd/php-lib Example 3-2. Windows include_path include_path=".;c:\www\phplib" --------------------- Founder of The 'What Kind of Idiot Uses PHP with IIS with Oracle on NT?'
