Hi For some reason $DOCUMENT_ROOT always points to /usr/local/apache/htocs even when the actual document root on the virtual domain is /usr/local/apache/domains/domain.com/www/ You can use PATH_TRANSLATED but that doesn't solve the http side when you may need to find the images directory from an included file :) My little relative_root does the trick nicely for both situations, just I think the expression I use is very brutal and there is probably a more elegant way to arrive at the same result.
