JKG Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 i have a settings.php file that the main index.php page links to. in their the site settings are explicitly declared. i suppose you are looking for an on the fly approach though? how about: <?php echo $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']; ?> or more reliably apparently: <?php echo getcwd() ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/246191-simple-include-problem-in-php/#findComment-1264391 Share on other sites More sharing options...
