themuffin Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 require('../includes/header.php'); require('../includes/main_menu.php'); require('../includes/footer.php'); require('../includes/template.php'); I hope that;s what you asked for I am like .. crazy NEW at this.. and thanks I don't think the path? is right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themuffin Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 that's actually the problem.. I don't know the proper way to write the path.. perhaps that should be what I was asking.. I'm getting in way over my head I know, but I have a few other pages I have made with no problem.. I used include instead of require..

Maq Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Well say the file you're calling the requires is in: /usr/local/blah.com/main/current_page.php Now when you call, "../includes" it goes back a dir, and into include. So now we're in: /usr/local/blah.com/main/includes Then in that directory you're looking for "header.php". Is that where it is, relatively?

themuffin Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 yes Maq that is where it is -in includes I thought when I uploaded the files to the remote server that I was putting them in the right place.. SO from the old error : Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'http://feelingabsolutelyfabulous.com/includes/header.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') should I put the includes in the php folder? as above?

Maq Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 should I put the includes in the php folder? as above? No muffin. Can you post the FULL path to the include file, and the FULL path of the PHP file you're calling it from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nankoweap Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 assuming your paths relative from the document root are correct, consider something like: include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/includes/header.php'); include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/includes/main_menu.php'); include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/includes/footer.php'); include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/includes/template.php'); jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themuffin Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'm not positive about anything.. sadly.. I am totally muddled.. so this site is hosted as a folder of another site /fab/ so how do i write it so it goes to that folder? I managed to install an Apache server ? on my local machine but I am not sure exactly how to direct each site where to put the testing files so I can see them.. I know, by now you are thinking you are dealing with a less than intelligent amoeba!! sorry.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maq Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 muffin, please answer the question. All you have to do is successfully navigate to the includes directory with the path that came with the error. Try to find this EXACT path: /home/content/s/c/t/sctfaery/html/includes If you can't then you're calling the includes incorrectly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themuffin Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 /home/content/s/c/t/sctfaery/html/fab/includes I'm pretty sure.. I am using dreamweaver which is why I asked where to go to see the directory thing that one of you said to type in (pwd) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maq Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I am using dreamweaver which is why I asked where to go to see the directory thing that one of you said to type in (pwd) That's only if you have SSH access. So let's go over this.... The path you're trying to access is currently: /home/content/s/c/t/sctfaery/html/includes The correct path: /home/content/s/c/t/sctfaery/html/fab/includes The relative path you're calling from your PHP page: ../includes/header.php The page you're calling it from: html/fab/content1.php So presumably you would change your relative path call to this to fix your problem: ../fab/includes/header.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
