As an HTML path, yes. Just don't confuse HTML paths with file-system paths in your PHP code. In a HTML href/src attribute "/dir/file" indicates a file in directory named "dir" which is a sub-directory of the root web directory. As a PHP filesystem path it would (at least in UNIX/Linux) indicate a file in a directory named "dir" which is a subdirectory of the root filesystem directory (i.e. nothing to do with where the web document root directory is).
include a file in another folder
Hello there
As I use the include function on my pages, is there a way to include a file located in another folder, so for example.
The link is google.com/subfolder/index.php
and if I intergrate a php file that located @
google.com/includes/header.php
Thank for replies in advance

@NogDogDec 05.2008 — #NogDog, would he be able to reference the stylesheet with a relative path? As in /stylesheets/mycss.css?[/QUOTE]
