Of course, it's a good idea (and a good practice) to separate folders
for each section of your site ("/images/", "/blahblah/", etc.). But,
putting
all include files in *one* folder (like "/inc/" or "/includes/" as
suggested).
Why, do you have thousands of files?

You mean the "includes"? There are many ways if you don't follow the
conventions (or suggestions) already given.

Why, did you name all your files with a .php extension? Or, are you sure
that all your *.ext are being processed as php files?

?

Right. Perhaps.
But you only need time to find out... unless you name your folders
(or included files) something like:
/thisIsMyVeryhardT0GuessFolderHehehe/
thisIsMyVeryhardT0GuessFolderHehehe.withVeryHardt0GuessExt
maybe it takes more time ;)
