I didn't catch the first part of this thread (rampant deletion ahoy) so
please excuse if I am talking nadgers. The way I see it, if you are
calling includes/requires from within other includes, the path is that of
the script that makes the first include. If that makes any sense.
So if you have a file called includes.php in your /home/webroot that
includes/requires files in a subdir called /home/webroot/stuff/ and those
files include/require other files within that same directory (such as
/home/webroot/stuff/class.cheese.php), then the includes would look like
this:
# index.php
include("includes.php");
.
.
.
.
# includes.php
include("stuff/dbstuff.php");
.
.
.
.
# stuff/dbstuff.php
include ("stuff/class.cheese.php");
.
.
.
.
Am I making any sense? :-)

Nick Winfield.
