[PHP] does chdir() change include_path on the fly? HELP

2001-01-19 Thread Noah Spitzer-Williams

my problem is i have an include file in a parent directory which includes
other files. i want these other files to be in the same directory as this
parent directory file..(hope your gettin me here...). the prob is the parent
directory file looks for its include files in the current directory.

example:
current path is:
www.blah.com/blahdir

a file in blahdir called blah1.php includes blah2.php which is located in
www.blah.com
blah2.php includes blah3.php and blah4.php which are also located in
www.blah.com
the problem is blah2.php looks for blah3.php and blah4.php in
www.blah.com/blahdir

will chdir() fix this? or is there another way?

Thanks!!

Two solutions come to mind:

1) Use a variable to store the directory you want to include from.
2) Use absolute paths.
