Hi Yes that would be fine for the html examples I gave but the real use is for php to find the include directory which I keep out of the server tree, one directory back like this
include($relative_root."../include/mysql_connect.inc") Each domain has its own include directory which I want to keep seperate from the default php include directory set in php.ini The other thing is that this gets rid of the include file inside included file problem as long as I set $relative_root at the top level.
