include as an absolute link

[jandrews3]

I need to use INCLUDE as an absolute link so I can place it within all files no matter what folder I put it in. I need each and every page to load append1.php at the end, but different pages are in different folders. I'm trying to standardize as much as possible.

 

include 'append1.php';  - works but doesn't give me standardization

include '../append1.php'; - also works but, again, doesn't give me standardization

include 'http://www.ithf.org'; - doesn't work, gives me a "URL file-access is disabled" error

 

Does anybody know a solution for me? Thanks.

you could try

include $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/file.php";
