Now you're not making any sense at all. \\ will generate \ in either '' or ""
type of quoting. If you don't believe me, try running this in a script:
print '\\some\\path\\', "\n";
and see what it prints.

/directory is relative to the drive not the current directory (that's true
on UNIX [except drive is file system on UNIX] as well as Windoze - at least
the NT based Windoze).
./directory would be relative to the current directory.
Try running this:
my $file = '/includes/28ESP.pl'; # relative to drive/FS
open IN, $file or die "open $file: $!";
print <IN>;
close IN;
and
my $file = './includes/28ESP.pl'; # relative to CWD
open IN, $file or die "open $file: $!";
print <IN>;
close IN;
And post results.
