have you checked your server (using FTP or whatever) to make sure the file is definitely there and in the right place? is your document_root set up properly?

put a line at the top of your code saying: echo $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']; and let me know what the result is.

which approach is down to personal preference. i personally use a touch of both in my sites (a template for all pages that defines the layout, and includes to pull in things like my menu, nav, etc) and each page in my site has a config.php. also with my includes, i always use:

[code]
include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/myfile.php');
[/code]
for my includes

and i never use ../ when refering to a file (image, another page, etc) as i prefer my pages and files to be relative to the site root rather than to other pages. this way, it doesnt matter if i shift my pages around into and out of subdirectories, they will alwys be able to find the files and links that they need.
