[thelist] PHP -Self-finding navigational includes

[Fred D Yocum]

Excellent, looks simple and neat! Presumably it could also be above the 
head in each document?

Hi Fred,

I use a tiny include consisting of the following code snippet, sitting
in every directory:

$subsCount = substr_count($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"],"/") - 1;
$i = 0;
while ($i++ < $subsCount) { $ROOT .= "../"; }

unset($i);
unset($subsCount);


Cheers,

jens
