inherited urls in includes?

**Garrett** · Jan 28, 2003 13:35

hello

using an include like so...

include("test/test.php");

the page test.php seems to inherit the base url from the include right? so any image in the file test.php which is lined as test.gif (ie its in the same folder as the file test.php) will in fact display a broken image.

is there a way around this? absolute urls not really being a solution!

If you want to be able to use the include in any directory level in your site you'll need to make the images in the includes absolute.

not true, silly me i can write an exclusion rewrite rule in apache to handle this, that will work in every directory!
