include a file in other folder

[[email protected]]

Myfile "file1.php" is in [content] folder

 

I need to include a file "connection.php" which is in [include] folder

 

These two folders [content] and [include] are at same level.

 

How do I require("connection.php") in file1.php

[emopoops]

require($_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] . "/rawr/vgvhr.php");

require '../include/connection.php'; - ../ is used to go up a level in a directory structure.

I am getting a warning and fatal error stating the file is not present??

[Alex]

Your directory structure is like this, correct?

 

include

    connection.php

 

content

    file1.php

 

If so to access connection.php the correct path would be ../include/connection.php

Thats right Alex... but I fixed it by altering the files.

 

But thanks u showed me something new...
