That's not a require_once problem.  You are confused about what the
current working directory is as your script is executing.  All includes
are relative to the top script, so even if you include module/module.php
and in the include inc/lib.php this will be top/inc/lib.php and not
top/module/inc.php.  This is so you can move things around and have it
work the same no matter where you put things.  As long as you keep this
in mind and always include relative to the top, everything should work a
lot better for you. ;)

I updated the script at http://vorm.net/bug28775.tar.gz to use
require_once() instead of include().

Problem is the same, and behaviour of include() and require_once() is
(and should, according to the manual) be the same in this respect. So I
think the quoted part of the manual still applies.

So perhaps this behaviour is by design (and not a bug), BUT it is
problematic in large projects. It should in my opinion actually behave
as C does in this respect, which means the example code should display
'Hello World' instead of 'function not defined'.

I would appreciate if others would look at this and test if it is
actual a bug and/or behaviour that can be changed.

Then the script I put there is wrong. I will upload a new one shortly.
It should have set include_once and not include. I will add a new reply
with a new script that should simulate the bug. My applogies for the
mistake.

At the url you just said, you gave an example using include, and not
include_once/require_once.
I suspect that you have the wrong idea of how include works.

http://www.php.net/include/

Second paragraph:
"Files for including are first looked in include_path relative to the
current working directory and then in include_path relative to the
directory of current script. E.g. if your include_path is ., current
working directory is /www/, you included include/a.php and there is
include "b.php"  in that file, b.php is first looked in /www/  and then
in /www/include/."

Of course. You can find a script that triggers this possible bug at:

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves. 

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external 
resources such as databases, etc.

If possible, make the script source available online and provide
an URL to it here. Try avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

Please provide a complete PHP script needed to reproduce 
the problem.
