Include File in Parent Folder

[ShoeLace1291]

I want to include a certain file that's in a parent folder.  For example, the file "config.php" is located in public_html/ and the file i'm including it in is in public_html/admin/  How do I include public_html/config.php in public_html/admin/index.php?

you just put a period or two in front of the location you have been trying like this:

 

include('./file.php');

or

include('../file.php');

 

try the single period first.
