if you can get it from php, then do this:

<script type="text/javascript">
var myjsdir = "<?php echo $dirfromphp; ?>";
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="yourfile.js"></script>

--php transfers it's variable value to a javascript variable using the inline javascript

--the javascript variable 'myjsdir' can now be referenced inside the scripts in 'yourfile.js'

 

--it's what I do because then I can leave the external javascript files with the .js extension for easier control of caching of them.

You'll never be able to see anything "above" the www directory.
