rustang289 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 $workdir = "/full/path/to/script/"; <- Full Path is it http://www.whatever.com/dir/ or "/www.whatever.com/dir/" or "/whatever.com/dir/" I guess what i'm saying is how is the full path formulated thanks rustang289 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/87677-can-somone-give-me-an-example-of-this/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Depends, is it on your server or someone elses? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/87677-can-somone-give-me-an-example-of-this/#findComment-448484 Share on other sites More sharing options...
awpti Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 It's based on the server-root. If you specify: $workdir = '/some/dir'; It will look at the server for /some/dir (from the SERVER root, not the documentroot). In PHP, you must work with absolute paths ex; /home/someuser/public_html/ I recommend handling it thusly; $include_dir = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/includes/'; This way, the full path to the file is known via the $_SERVER global variable. echo $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']; might show something like this; /home/user/public_html So, echo $include_dir -> /home/usr/public_html/includes/ Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/87677-can-somone-give-me-an-example-of-this/#findComment-448486 Share on other sites More sharing options...
