glassfish Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 The root directory: header.php stylesheet.css In the following example I am trying to include the header.php file in a sub folder. When I include the header.php like in the following example then the stylesheet.css file will not work anymore: <?php include("../header.php"); ?> The stylesheet.css file is included in the head tags of the header.php file. Is the above example the right way to do it? If yes, how can I do it so the stylesheet.css file will work too.

Ch0cu3r Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Is the above example the right way to do it? Yes. That path is called a relative file path. This is how you include files from other directories. If yes, how can I do it so the stylesheet.css file will work too. Start your file paths in your HTML with a forward slash (this is know as an absolute file path) eg <link rel="stylesheet" href="/stylesheet.css" /> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/291351-including-the-headerphp-file-when-using-a-sub-folder/#findComment-1492391 Share on other sites More sharing options...
glassfish Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 When I use a forward slash the stylesheet.css file does not work at all anymore. <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> <title></title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/stylesheets.css" /> </head> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/291351-including-the-headerphp-file-when-using-a-sub-folder/#findComment-1492392 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginerjm Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 perhaps because you spelled it wrong? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/291351-including-the-headerphp-file-when-using-a-sub-folder/#findComment-1492394 Share on other sites More sharing options...
