I have a quick question concerning the document root directory. All my PHP files are in the directory:

/var/www/html/


However, I also have several include files containing email addresses and MySQL login info in a separate directory. I was told that this is a good way to keep this information private and secure. These files are located in the following directory:

/var/www/includes/


Is this directory considered out of the document root? Or does the document root start at the "/var/www" level?
