    Re: php issue

    Bah, I thought I hit submit, but I guess not.

    Anyway, are you using the full path to the php files, or the relative path?

    I checked one of my php files and I had this:

    Code:
    <?php
    # Enter relative path to site's root directory
    $rootpath='./';
    include_once ($rootpath."templates/header.php");
    include_once ($rootpath."templates/nav.php");
    ?>

    Re: php issue

    the php page bottom.php is like this in the index.php page

    include '/include/bottom.php';

    exactly like that so I'm not sure why it wont call it if its in the same directory (/var/www/include)

    PHP seems to want to have full UNIX paths, not anything with the web server. Two work-arounds exist.

    One is to give the full path.

    Code:
    include '/var/www/include/bottom.php';
    The other is to use a relative path.

    Code:
    include './include/bottom.php';
    I expect that there is a third way, the way that is actually correct, but these are the two obivous options.

    php issue

    It might be due to an inconsistency or defect in PHP itself:

    Here's yet another work-around:

    Thanks for the explanation. I have always used the relative path on my pages.

    I suspect the way to go is set an include_path, pointing to one or more directories where you collect your includes (that then can be referenced by bare filename in your code). And use includes (with relative or absolute path) as fallback, for special cases.
