Hello

Any help appreciated.

I have a php file which contains a request for a header and footer.

This file is in http://www.mydomain.com/folder1/folder2/index.php

If I have my header and footer in:

http://www.mydomain.com/folder1/includes/header.inc
http://www.mydomain.com/folder1/includes/footer.inc

What is the path to these files that I should use in the index.php file
to access these include files?

Do I have to use the full static URL
(http://www.mydomain.com/folder1/includes/header.inc)?
Or is there a way like "//includes/header.inc"
Where I can come down a level in the heirarchy and reach the file?

Thanks for your help.

You can use relative paths ie include "../includes/header.inc"
