Johan,
Use a combination of getcwd() and chdir(). It's well worth while checking
out the functions offered for both directory and file.
<?
$cwd = getcwd();
chdir ($cwd."/wherever/you/want/to/set/it");
> #The following index.htm contains links, see below.
>$link = "data/data.htm";
>$fd = fopen ($link, "r");
>echo fread ($fd,filesize( $link));
>fclose ($fd);
chdir( $cwd );
?>
