The idea is to allow an application to be distributed easily without any
reconfiguration. If it doesn't need any variables to tell it where it is in
the directory structure, it won't matter where it is placed in someone
else's application-- it will just work because of the relative includes.
Why not simply define a set of variables for root dir and the other
directories,
and use full paths in your includes?
$root = /wwwroot/mydomain/public/;
$homepageroot = /;
$mydir = subdir/;
now you can do:
include $rootpath.$mydir.inc.php;
and
a href=?php echo $hompageroot.$mydir.inc.php;
