I should have clarified my intentions: I have a web site and an admin site.. The admin site uses session vars but the web site doesn't. So, I have two apps. One sets client cookies w/ session management on (the admin site); The main site is sessionless, cookieless etc. The main concern is passing config variables, such as DB usernames, passwords, root directories, web root dirs, etc, which I use throughout the applications. Textual vars such as DSN's can be called from included files, but two "directory" relevant piece of info is the physical "root" location of the site as well as the web root (incase a site is in a sub dir). These I set from the master directory, so the admin area knows where to upload files to based on the "root" value. I know i can find and replace for the subdirectory, but I hate hardcoding values in the apps. My current solution is writing the directory-based app vars to a text file from the root application, and reading them out from all included sub-apps.
