If you want your document root to be /var/www/html/mysite and it is currently something else, you need to set your httpd.conf file differently. Or perhaps a .htaccess file can be used. (This is assuming you are using Apache.) Go to www.apache.org and read the httpd documentation there for more information about setting up the document root in httpd.conf.

Re: [PHP] php and apache path...
In your config file (or at the top of each page) you should establish what
your document root is:
$docroot = /usr/home/sitename/;# or whatever
Then do something like include({$docroot}inc_dir/file.inc);
Or maybe you specify an include directory in your config:
$incdir = /usr/home/sitename/inc/;# or whatever
Then do something like include({$incdir}file.inc);
Or maybe write a small function that allows you to do it all
transparently... maybe something like myinclude('file.inc').
As Dan has pointed out, the other option would be to use
$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']:
$docroot = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];
include({$docroot}myfile.inc);
I don't believe it can be done with ~/ or ./ or something... haven't found
it yet!!

Whenever you have a question like this, run phpinfo() and see what's there
which produces the variable you're looking for.
