At least it makes more sense now that you're getting the failed to open error. I'd try putting a small file in the php4/pear directory and see if you can include that. If so, then it's still a path problem - like maybe it's looking to php4/pear/http://....
Since I don't have anything including successfully, this is all the help I can be :-) Good luck! -Natalie -----Original Message----- From: Doug DeVries [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, June 11, 2002 1:36 PM To: Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS) Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Fw: include() statement goofing me up - help I've changed the source file on this issue.
