Folders

[Suchy]

I have a simple variable:

$fulldir = 'photo_upload';

but when I moved the script that this variable is in, the adress should be

$fulldir = '../photo_upload';

 

But this is giving me a error, what would be the correct way of specifing the directory ?

Where is the directory in relation to the script?

Well this seems to work fine for me. Try using:

 

$fulldir = './../photo_upload';

 

You might also want to specify your forwardslash (/) at the end of the variable, just so that you dont have to worry about it later in the code.

in my directory I have something like this:

 

- index.php (webpage)

- login.php (webpage)

- photos.php (webpage)

- photo_upload (folder) -1.jpg , 2.jpg , 3.jpg , 4.jpg...

- functions (folder) - show.php , db_connect.php ...

 

I have these variables in the script show.php in that folder "functions" and I want the $fulldir to point to the photo_upload folder

if you call show.php explicitly through the browser then your $fulldir has to be '../photo_upload', but if show.php is an include in index.php, login.php and/or photos.php, then your $full dir has to be 'photo_upload'
